The interactive macro editor is a great touch. I don't know if this is prevalent, but this is the first time I've seen a tutorial interactively modify code in the editor for you. Instead of "here, type this into the editor above and see what happens," there will be a link to "click here to see what happens" and it will change the code in the editor accordingly. I think this is a good thing, because I rarely go and do the things that tutorials suggest I do, even if they are as simple as typing into an editor that is 2 inches above the text I am reading.
