seems to me that what is needed is less rather than more
randomness than a list of links provides. Cross linking is
potentially a very valuable way to generate targeted traffic. But like
much on the web - to make it work well - it needs moderating.

Well -- if my client had something to sell to Mac folks -- I'd sure look
at the Mac web rings -- there are several, and their strength in this
case (IMO) is that the people coming from them are going to be
pre-disposed to Mac products.

I think there may be subjects where web-rings make sense for a site. Try
it and then look at your logs.
