Looking for a way to gracefully implement an auto-flipping display box of stories. You know, one story for five seconds, then story 2, the story 3, and back to story 1. Something like what you see here. It needn't actually display tabs, only a back and forwards UI. I'd prefer it not to have tabs, in fact.
Has anyone done this? What have you used?
I know there's magic tabs, which seems like it could very well do the job. Just thought I'd seek some advice before diving in.
What I'd like to be able to do is specify nodes, title, and images into an array which them dumps it out to the screen. -- Realize that could take some code tweakage, which I should be able to pull off.
Update:
Started searching, no Drupal module seems to do auto rotating out of the box ... but I could certainly put together a some node_loads and tie it in with some javascript. This script uses jquery and works pretty nicely but has no forward and back control.
Update 2:
Found Views Rotator, looks like it could do the trick. Investigating.

Views Slide Show
The Views Slide Show module does this - feed it a view, and it renders a slideshow of nodes that fade into each other. We're using it for a traditional image-based slide show here but it'll render any node theming, not just images.
you could use jcarousel
http://drupal.org/project/jcarousel
To loop Jcarousel... you need to set the wrap option and cycle the auto option
this will show 5 images(visible:5), advancing 1 image (scroll:
1) every 2 seconds (auto:2) and when it reaches the last image wrap
back to the first (wrap:last).
// set up the carousel
jQuery('#mycarousel').jcarousel({
visible: 5,
auto: 2,
scroll:1,
animation: 'slow',
wrap: 'last'
});
