How to implement a new (possibly) admin widget

Hi,

A certain template I am defining needs a variable-length list of web links. A link is (for now) a URL and anchor text, both text fields.

I am trying to put together a friendly UI for admins but I am confused.

I see similar widgets throughout admin (callouts, categories, etc), and it seems that a "matrix" field might do the trick. Is this right? If not, what is the minimum code that would have to be written?

Thank you,
Tushar

The matrix field is the way to go.
