With the internet moving faster and faster, users wanting more and quicker, some designers try to give the user everything all at one – on one single page. This works very well with portfolios, when you don’t need to leave the page or site to see a full source of portfolio pieces.
With easy scrolling sliders with jQuery and other web technologies, and the ease of mouse scrolling, for me this is a great way of trying to make your site work a different way.
This trend has been around a few years now, and these websites are showing many different ways of exploring the single page design.

1 page sites becomes heavy to load sometimes.. But good idea to have 2-3 pages on 1 page only..
