What's name of this article rotating feature?

Question

I developed article rotator where 5 articles with images rotate automatically and user can focus one (and stop rotating) by mouseover. Click will open the article.

The article rotator is here: http://antizena.df.sk/ and it is just devel version.

How to name it? What is the best name for this feature?

Answer 1

They are usually referred to as Carousels

Answer 2

I would call it Carousel

Answer 3

Call it anything you want. But it fits into the category of carousels or images sliders. Here is a plugin similar to yours called an image rotator.

Answer 4

Article stack? Article pile? AutoSkip-Stack?

A carousel to me is something that spins and where you can see more than one element at a time. Similar to the coverflow on an iPod.
