The extreme is the cross product of links where every page is connected to every other. This is a form of free association and has a worst case complexity of N^2 links. As you can imagine it is easy to be confused about where you are and where you might go next, since you are not being given good advice. On the other hand, if you are designing a game in which the object is to uncover a hidden path, this scheme might work very well.
