mouse over madness
We are all used to colored links that underline if you mouse over them, this has no use but it looks cool and were used to it.
clear picture of "whut to do??"
You should always try to offer a clear picture of what you want your visitor to do on a page. or they wont. This means you should limit the targets were you can. A yes / no kind of sub page is just the best. This results in the page explainging about just a few options to continue reading after your done here.
names to links
Names on a page can be turned into links to make it more dynamic, put the 2 together and you have a chaotical number of links that all point to just a few pages. Even the designer cant find things.
I was trying to find a sensible way to put the 3 together and it should work on this page by the time you read this. Mouse over the colored text and see the effect! Doesn't that instantly explain they point to the same page??? I guess it can also affect the menu of a site in difrent ways.
Please comment this idea below please, do you think this is a good idea?
