    I tend to think of a bussiness or ecommerce site a bit like a big railway station or an airport. They have plenty of signs, because there are loads of different places to go, but it's important to go to the right one.

    Thats why these places tend to have standardised signs. I think the Internet can be seen like that. It has a common language, links are underlined, each site has a contact us, you expect the signs & links to be explanitory.
    If you're doing an more experimental site where you want an expect the user to be creative then that's fine too, depends on your audience.
