Take heed! I am a former regular eWeek on-line reader that goes to their site about once a quarter now since they started putting most of their worthwhile content in slide shows. If you go the slideshow route also, I will leave you as part of my past also.

2010 - the year of the SCROLL WHEEL where all articles are on a single web page - not many have adopted this radical new concept yet! But the groundwork is being laid. One-page articles are easier to read because the user can SCROLL THROUGH THEM rather than read a bug-bite, try to find the tiny image button to go to the next page, click it, wait for it to load, and repeat the process twelve times. Until then, users which skip these articles realize they're not missing anything.
