How would I go about making a post slide show?
Here is exactly what I am thinking of:
Go to the homepage, site loads with a single post displayed, the latest post to the blog. After about 5 seconds or so, the post would change to the next latest post, and so on. There should be a stop/start button too I would think.
Any ideas? Is there a plugin or known method?
Thanks,
Wolf

I am seeking a similar solution but have, as of yet, not found anything.
You might try reading the post from UpsideDownCity:
WordPress Featured Post Slideshow/. It seems to work fairly well, but has some problems (the author notes if the post count of your "featured" category is not divisible by 3, the system will crash).
Also: take a look at the Hybrid News theme which does exactly what you want (but might be a bit difficult to translate to another design).
Good luck! Please post any successful discoveries here to help those in the WP community that have a similar interest.
