So, if we discount the risk of destroying the UK economy due to 'too many links' :)
What I once considered was a low key link. And one that had multiple targets. Clicking a word (or even an area?) brings up a menu of links (not mouseover - that's too distracting. Of course on mouseover you may flash a tiny pair of muddy boots as a popup or turn the cursor to boots, or visually activate a muddy-boots icon in the sidebar or....) Of course that was about 8 years ago in pre-ajax days - now we have ajax/javascript dropdowns it makes more sense. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
