You know, the endless live-scrolling code that Twitter and Tumblr and a few other places are using now.... does anyone really like it much?

With every new increment, interaction with the page gets slower, and slowwwwwwer, and slowwwwwwwwwwwwer.... so this never-ending continuously loading more-and-more on the Same Page... seems like it's clunky and bothersome to me... I'd rather go to a "next page" in succession, like most pages/blogs are .... at least then you know there's a limit to the LOAD LAG ;P

Despite the fact that I pretty much hate the JavaScript overload that is going on these days... I rarely have any problem with these scrollers, if they are done right...
The ones I know use a JavaScript to load another block of whatever it is you are viewing using AJAX. I'm using IE9 and ever since I first saw these things pop up (IE7) I couldn't say that I had any decline in browsing speed whatsoever. Again, the better ones will show a "loading" message...
