Question

Have you seen yahoo’s ipad/tablet home page? The swipe effect for flipping through headlines is impressive. I have seen some workarounds in jquery (using the cycle plugin + the touchwipe plugin) but these all simply detect user gesture and then run the x- absolute position animation, rather than actually track the user’s gesture. Know of a solution similar to yahoo’s?

Found the solution: http://cubiq.org/iscroll-4

Used the “snap-to” option to re-create the carousel effect.
