Tidbit: Did you realize that 20% to 25% of search queries that Google gets in any one day are unique; unique as in “never seen before,” not once! Gives a whole new meaning to the “long tail”. (source: Web Pro Business)

If you haven’t actually read Chris Anderson’s The Long Tail: Why the Future of Business is Selling Less of More, I recommend you pick up a copy. It’s one of the better e-business books I’ve read in quite a while: well written, intelligently argued, supported by real data, and quite relevant to e-commerce (and SEO).

Anderson also has a very good blog, which was the genesis of the theories for the book.
