imho that irritates me more than the mac one since it's information and the mac one is a product review so the scrolling kind of gives you a way to get a feel for the product. Although it does have a working scroll bar which the mac one lack.
On any of these how the hell am I supposed to navigate to a specific topic? or link any one to a specific point. The mac one does have tiny dots on the side. I think many people wouldn't even notice them.
The entire scroll hack just seems like a gimmicky, non-intuitive, time consuming alternative to using a slider to forward though a animation/video or some kind of navigation buttons with an animated transition. Or just play a regular movie/animation.
It's incredibly buggy for me - chrome on windows. Even when it allowed me to scroll, it was slow and jerky. I suspect it's designed for the acceleration based scrolling on mac touchpads however, so I'm not too surprised that the scrollwheel on my mouse disagreed with it.
