Hi Jonathan, I think it's important to consider the content of the page that you're paginating. If you're displaying thumbnails, it is easy enough for a visually inclined user to scroll through a large list and mentally keep track of what they are looking at. If you're scrolling through a ton of textual summaries however, it's going to be a lot harder for that user to keep track of what they're looking at, or even find what they're looking for.
I like limiting the number of items per page to around 20. I think it's a good amount for a user to process and manage in their memory and it doesn't feel like you're clicking "next" every two seconds. Best of luck! - Kelly . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
