May I suggest that you improve the site navigation by adding quick links, and a way out from the "dead-end" in the documentation section.
The most common sections for me (and I am sure for other clients) are:
Forums
Demos
Code Library
Documntation
You also have frequent cross reference text (occasionally with out links) such as "For more detail see the documentation on <sometopic>"
So lets say I am in this forum (I actually was on the documetion section (mildly) frustrated that there are no links out, even not to the home page; so I backspaced on the brouser address to go to the home poage and then use the community drop down/forums ... After sending this message I want to go to demos, they are under the product category menu, but of course in my case it is alearning/documentaion tool; even through the product category I have to go two levels to get to the actual demos.
Adding quick links to the above categories and cross reference links will help a lot! so if I am in the doumentation on RadGrid, I would like to see three links there, pointing to: RadGrid Forum, RadGrid Code Library, and RadGrid Dem section; and similary cross-ref links in the other categories.
Very minor work on your side; big help for those of us spending a lot of time on your site.
Thanks,

Hello Arie,
Thank you for sharing your suggestions with us. Currently, we are working on improving the site navigation (we'll pay special attention to the documentation - we do agree with you these are the pages from which it is hardest to navigate back to another section of the site). We'll certainly take some actions to improve this, although for now I can't promise they will be exactly what you recommend.
Concerning the demos, you can find links to the other resources available for the product on the overview page of each product demo (ex. http://www.telerik.com/demos/aspnet/Grid/Examples/Overview/DefaultCS.aspx - you can see all the links to the Help resources at the right end).
Kind regards,
