It certainly is!
I tried my best to encompass a wide selection, I did find it hard sticking to the max limit, there is so much other good stuff too. I am sure since the publication date, much more has been added to the site.

We really need a system to sub-catagory the Guides, as to have sections to which one could add several I'bles each. Thus having many more I'bles in the guide, neatly stored in the sub-guide catagorys.
