Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: This study investigated the effect of explicitness of navigational links on comprehension, perceptions of use, and browsing behaviour in an informational b site. The purpose was to determine whether link explicitness would assist users in overcoming cognitive overload and disorientation. Subjects took a pre-knowledge survey, browsed b pages in one of four link explicitness conditions, and took a post-browsing survey on comprehension and perceptions of use. Link explicitness differentially affected the outcome measures. Organizationally explicit navigational links resulted in lor scores on the post-comprehension survey. A combined condition of semantically and organizationally explicit links resulted in subjects reporting that they follod more embedded links. Traditional links and semantically/organizationally explicit links resulted in subjects exploring more of the study b site. These results, together with subjects' comments and bserver log files, indicate that navigational link labels clearly affect user performance - ambiguous link labels degrade comprehension and constrain browsing; traditional navigational links and links that provide dual signaling encourage broader sampling of a b site.
