Blasting the Myth of the Fold - Boxes and Arrows: The design behind the design
Screen performance data and new research indicate that users will scroll to find information and items below the fold.

Or more properly, we’re <em>pioneers</em>, since we’re the ones who built, tested, and worked the bugs out of many of these things.
