This (fig. 1) is the header of an entry in the RSS reader I'm building. The "Example feed" link is problematic. Indeed, it can lead to two different locations:
I have considered a few approaches to fix this confusing link:
The best solution could be the last one, but not without tweaking. We have to get rid of the "too much effort from the user" problem. The trick is to show two links side by side in the popup menu, in such a way that one of the links is right under the cursor when the menu appears (fig. 2). This creates a default choice ("View here"), allowing the user to move and click without further effort for that default choice. And it's just a matter of moving the cursor slightly to the right when the user wants to select the alternative choice ("Visit website"). Still more effort required than for a regular link, but less than for a regular popup menu.
Tweaks: good copywriting hinting which link leads where, and good usability handling, basically taking care of zooming, scrolling, etc.
