This page came about as a result of this post in the Duplicated Modules Hall of Shame group. The linked post lists several modules that provide either tabbed content or rotating content. I see two general use cases here:
* A device to provide access to large amounts of regular site content from one area of the page (tabbed content).
* A device to showcase featured content, often on the home page, in an eye-catching manner (rotating /sliding content).I am limiting this comparison page to the latter use case. My own module, Quick Tabs, was included in the original list linked to above, but as it does not provide any real rotator or slideshow type functionality, I am leaving it out here. It is open to discussion whether the ideal eventual outcome of any consolidation between the best features of the best of the modules would be a package that includes both types of feature.
