I know it's late, but this post from Todd is inspiring - 21 Tips for Better Online Credibility. My favorite is #21:
21. Have a freakin’ sense of humor
...Take time to laugh, poke fun at yourself, and make others laugh as well. Show people that you’re human and not a corporate drone. Not only is it good for your soul…it’s good for credibility and your business.
Amen, brother.

Now SEOMoz will rank for "asjdcbao". :)
rossio - just add this to your httpd.conf or a .htaccess file:
ErrorDocument 404 /some/custom/file.html
ha! Those darn evil search hags! Keep 'em out by Stonehenge I say!
That really is an awesome read and another site to add to my growing feeds to read...
I think
It drives me crazy that people don’t create custom 404 pages because it’s very easy.
and
Pictures of REAL people
Are the next on my list. Does anyone have a good '404 page' 101 that I could take a look at?
This is great info. Thanks for providing it.
Agreed. Nothing breaks my heart (or ruins my breakfast) more than 1. the corporate drone speak (politics in SEO) 2. constantly po'd, ranting, nagging, "its everybody else's fault", SEO people
Its definitely more fun to read blogs & forums where people are exploring & having fun with SEO. Danny Sullivan is the perfect SEO spokesperson - informative and funny. His singing though... that's another matter...
laura - you can't blame Danny for his singing voice. He had to sell it to Ursula, the evil search hag, in exchange for legs :)
Bookmarked. Excellent read, some very good ideas there.
