Features by Audience

Temporary page to work on features to show on front page targeting 3 audiences - content publishers, designers and developers. The current idea is to have a 300px x 300px (approx) section for each audience each with rotating content showing 4 or 5 items at a time, done with jQuery preferably, and visitor can click to see further content while still on front page.
