Parallax scrolling effects have become an increasingly popular trend in web design. The basic idea of parallax is having different elements scroll along different site lines. This often gives viewers an increased sense of depth in the design. Many web designs are incorporating such parallax elements to add visual interest and intrigue as users scroll down (or across a page). Some sites use it more obviously while others simply use it as a subtle compliment to the overall design. Either way, it's quite an impressive effect and one that should continue to gain popularity as the web experiences become more vibrant and rich.
