Well content Slider Revolution WordPress made impression as really huge piece of software that you can use for video, image and presentation creation on your website or blog. Very good that it is frequently updated (Change Log here ») but we could not find that you can use it as featured posts rotator. Responsiveness and touch-devices support is working really well. And it is really impressive that so many other themes include Revolution Slider to their code – so many developers cannot be wrong!
