Navigation Paradigms
The Razorfish site
http://www.razorfish.com/ has several
innovative ideas for navigation on a web
site. One, in paticular, is the idea that
web sites are moving more toward a system
of navigating through information, rather
than a collection of web pages. They
describe this idea
here:
http://www.razorfish.com/table.cgi?company=about.
The tip here, is that in designing a site,
it is valuable to think of the experience
as circular (or even cyclical), as opposed
to a linear series of pages like a book or
magazine.
You will notice that most of their
navigation happens based on a CGI- based
delivery system. This is becoming far more
common, as it allows the site manager to
more closely monitor navigational traffic
patterns.
Here's Anchor's Navigation section which
has some good links on navigation tips/techniques:
