SLIDESHOWS ARE IGNORED
http://www.adamfellowes.com/blog/user-experience/the-rise-of-the-carosuel
“Almost all of the testing I’ve managed has proven content delivered via carousels to be missed by users. Few interact with them.”

SLIDESHOWS ARE LAZY & GENERIC
“Carousels are effective at being able to tell people in Marketing/Senior Management that their latest idea is now on the Home Page.“

SLIDESHOW CONSIDERATIONS
▸Do you really need one?
▸Show similar items
▸For the love of God, don’t have it auto-play
▸Make the navigation obvious
▸Only load what you absolutely need
▸Track slideshow metrics to evaluate its effectiveness.
