Tracking Navigation Behaviors

Michael Angeles has written up his experiences on tracking user navigation methods by logging where users click on web pages. Basically, he figured out which navigation methods (global nav, local nav, breadcrumbs, content links, etc) are used by the users. Looks like a valuable exercise for anyone designing the navigation systems of a site. Maybe Angeles will post some more details on the methodology used to gather the data...
