I’m looking for a slider or carousel that displays posts, rather than image galleries. Most of the plugins or example code I’ve encountered are just for image galleries.
Either a plugin or example code would work.
Thanks 
I ended up building my own using the jQuery cycle plugin fed by a query_posts() statement and its own content template.
