Hot Links
This will probably be the most accessed section of your research site. The idea of having a "Hot Links" section is to bring together as many internet sources related to your research topic. The amount of information on the internet may be overbearing. For instance, the amount of information on the net dealing with futures and options is endless and getting greater each day. Therefore, you may want to tailor your Hot Links sections with select sites. For instance, the OFOR hot links page, "Futures and Options Resources on the Web", is designed to be a resource primarily for derivative market researchers. It leaves out most commercial (i.e., brokerage firm) links, however, these links can be accessed indirectly through other pages listed in the section.
