Paging and scrolling navigation--together

As mentioned in a previous post, most web-based systems seem to bump into performance limits that prevent implementing infinite scrolling. And so some amount of paging navigation is usually required.

Tastebook combines both scrolling and paging navigation on a single page. It seems to have a limit of loading 100 items per page--which they've implemented within a scrolling frame. Paging links are at the bottom of the frame (click for full-sized image):

Though the paging links have relatively light visual weight, they are in a highly discoverable location: right at the end of the scroll bar.
