I get the feeling that many, many, many of these scrolling sites were only tested with two-finger scrolling on an Apple laptop touchpad. They often feel extremely awkward with a regular scroll wheel.

I use an Apple trackpad with two-finger scrolling for 70% of my web browsing. I have yet to encounter one of these scrolling sites that didn't feel extremely awkward on it. Maybe the target audience is iPad users? I feel like the behavior might make sense on a tablet.

On iPad. Was not good. Edit: just rechecked. Nothing scrolls, it's all 'click to continue'.

Well... Maybe it works in Netscape Navigator?
