"Smells Like Bakin'"?

I'm coming across a number of references towards a "Smells Like Bakin'" website but I can't find any courses directly linked to it. Is it no longer available to view or do I need to work harder on my search skills?

Smell's like Bakin was an example website used in courses across many topics on Treehouse but many of the courses referencing them have been retired. :-)

Why did they retire? Did they become obsolete due to more modern approaches being introduced?

Maybe not so much that they were obsolete. At least not in all respects. But it's good to refresh on content every now and then. You'll find that course are retired on Treehouse every 2 to 3 years. Some of the points I've earned in the past 2 years are from courses no longer available.
