Great comments; excellent feedback and insight. By the way, though, I'm not at all recommending anyone turn their site map into the home page... that was one of Jared Spool's suggestion or thoughts... I merely am conveying it. I don't however agree with that nor his sentiment that its good to have a home page that is 10 pages long. Please tell me one person, just one that actually goes and reads the full Amazon.com home page. In fact, I would guess, that 90% of visitors to Amazon use the search engine, or are following a link from a promo newsletter, colleague or friend to a very particular item. Now, having lots of relevant footer links... that's an entirely different option which I strongly support (we till you see our new website design).
