Word: Primary Navigation

Definition: Directing links on a website or application that (most typically) appear above the fold,  are displayed near the top of the page, and represents the content that is most relevant to the user.

Thoughts: Primary navigation can usually be found just below the logo and header and is always displayed prominently. Navigation is key to way-finding and acts as a constant and comforting presence to orient the user.

Question: Is primary navigation a left-over relic of interets-past? What will be the role of primary navigation on our infinite and parallax scrolling future?
