are the 4 "later" links taken from within the 1st one? like chain? or are they all completely random from the homepage?

All completely random. x

On a (kind of) related topic... has anyone else ever played wikilinking? You pick a random article and read it. Then get a second random article. Then, using only the in-article links, see how few links you can use to get back to the first article :)
