There's a lot in the SEO blogosphere worthy of reading today, and although I'm not usually one to post a roundup, it feels appropriate so, without further ado:

Aaron's going crazy, posting like a madman this morning/afternoon on topics from political blog link-baiting to bad landing pages for SEOmoz's advertisers to the value of attending conferences.

Threadwatch is posting about the possible impending death of the view bids tool at Overture - say it ain't so! They're also covering the invasion of Wikipedia content in the Google SERPs and speculating if this forebodes what's to come with the AOL deal.

Jim's ripping apart Google's webmaster guidelines (in style).

Donna's looking into the crystal ball for 2006 and her predictions are fantastic.

Rob Sullivan is at Search Engine Journal, looking into Google's application of quality guidelines and wondering if it will cross the border between paid and organic results.

Lots of good stuff for what should be such a slow week.
