Well, it still exists. There's no plans to close it down, as far as I know (but I haven't finished reading the article).
Fab is an online store focused on design goods — furniture, gadgets, a smattering of clothes and shoes and so on. The inventory changes out pretty fast. They have occasional pop up shops in NYC. They just launched their own line of furniture called Hem.
The online store is nice -- one of the nicer store UIs, actually -- but their inventory tends towards the Urban Outfitter/Think Geek kind of flashy, youth/nerd-oriented, ultimately low-quality or ephemeral fashion items that are going out of style soon. When I think of Fab, I mainly think of wall decals and phone cases with skulls.
