I've been following Nik's blog and recommend it to learners of English, e.g. Spotlight readers here: http://www.spotlight-online.de/language/grammar/are-you-used-to-learning-online

I think this is one of the most exciting ELTons lists ever. Mainly because both old and new publication styles are represented, books, online materials, dictionaries, and from what I know about them, they share one common factor - they are all well produced and user-friendly.

Yep! I haven't seen all of them, but it does look that way! From the online learning platforms to the teacher training videos and from the dictonary to the "teaching with Teddy" concept, it all seems eminently useable.
