Although it will probably have to used on one site, for the others we have changed the technique utilised, after about 5 or 6 different incarnations. Hopefully be the end of the weekend the new system will appear with good effect on <a href="http://www.quirm.net" rel="nofollow">Quirm.net</a> Though at the end of the day I learnt a lot about usable menus! and my solution sucked.

So if the large amount of links (and therefore potentially complex navigation) is going to be a usability concern, would it not be good idea to present all your links on a single, seperate page?
