I don't understand the need to 1) be so clever and 2) get mad when people call you for being annoyingly clever.
I mean, first you take away the scroll bar, because it's ugly. Fine. Whatever. Next, you expect me cause the page to transition by moving RIGHT and LEFT. Not UP and DOWN, you know, like web pages have always worked. Finally, you don't bother to mention this fact anywhere on the website?!

They don't use links etc because it's not a web page, just a html document -- it's primary use is for seeing it as slides through a projector. This fact is evident both from the text and from the site's looks, and from that everything else follows (how you navigate, etc). But confusion would still be OK, if we haven't had the exact same discussion 100s of times before on HN -- and if we weren't 99% devs, supposed to be able to solve much worse "mysteries" on our own...
