- tjpick 16y agoUsers do scroll. http://www.useit.com/alertbox/scrolling-attention.html http://www.useit.com/alertbox/scrolling-attention.html From the article: Scrolling beats paging because it's easier for users to simply keep going down the page than it is to decide whether or not to click through for the next page
- hoop 16y agoI haven't seen this before, thanks!
- code_duck 16y agoI find 'all on one page' far more usable than having to click 'next' and wait for a whole new page to load. Many comments I see generally indicate that this feeling is common.
