Fraser, Landon; Locatis, Craig
Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, v52 n14 p1255-61 Dec 2001

Results confirmed previous research that shallow link structures are better than deep (layered) link structures, and also showed that annotations had virtually no effect on search performance.
