I’m finding the my fading slideshow is causing the page to load slowly and wonder if there is a clever way to get it to load after the rest of the page has finished loading?
I clicked on your link and Safari started, got your page and loaded in about 8 seconds. No way it was cached.

One of the speakers at Railsconf said that if you haven’t got
something on the screen in 1 second, you’re doing it wrong and people
will leave. That’s why it’s important to look at the way you organize
your page at the code level, and see if you can coerce Freeway to put
enough quick-loading text on the page before the massive images start
their dance, otherwise you’ve lost their attention at the very
beginning.

This presentation is about building pageless sites, like New Twitter,
where there’s only the initial page load then everything else loads in
later per click. All in the name of getting that initial page load
time down to nearly nothing, and then speeding up each subsequent
click, since you aren’t ever replacing the outer page.
