I like the effect tumblr uses on their landing page where each "page" is vertically scroll-able. What is this called? Is this possible with pure css/js or is some plugin likely needed?

Looks like you've got some answers, but heads up, a lot of people really dislike this kind of scroll hijacking. It makes them feel like their computer or phone doesn't work on your site like they expect it to and can make them pretty frustrated.
Thanks, I didn't really think about this. My goal is to convey a bunch of information quickly however I realize I should do it by way of an intuitive site. for the moment though, I feel stuck with a landing page until my network is larger. I'd appreciate your opinion if you have a moment. I'm building this site - www.nextcept.com. Originally, my home page was www.nextcept.com/Feed, and ideally this would be the home page to get folks right in. But I feel a need to explain a lot and I keep trying to think of different ways but I'm still stuck with a landing page for the moment. Any ideas? Sample sites you've seen that might give me an idea of what to try? Thanks all.
infinite scroll
Usually called a full-page site.
One of my favorites is fullpage.js which I don't think has any dependencies (or maybe just jQuery).
Hopefully that works for what you need!
yes, this is it. Thanks.
However, this one seems to have a commercial license need. Is this tool the only real way to accomplish this? Thanks for the help.
Try this repo.
Like @Carter said, playing with scrolling is risky business, especially on mobile. Maybe look at adding clickable anchor tags to get users where you want them to be.
