Using the ADXL345

I cant find any links that are not broken in reference to the KOP accelerometer from a few years back. I was going to use a gyro but drift is to irritating to compensate for, so a digital accelerometer is the next best thing. Does anyone know how to program for these ( no examples could be found in this years software) and how to wire it? I see a 0v SDA and SCL and 5v, how is this wired?

EDIT: I found an up to date 2016 screensteps page, but it still has broken links to the wiring page. the I2C has a 3.3v port and the accel I have says 5v on it, will this work? Also my electrical guy thinks I can use this accelerometer to measure angle. Is this true?
