I'll try and send something, but google has been turning the "backdoor method" on and off every few hours.

RE: Are you getting any action from Google +1 ?
I've seen some minimal numbers, probably just a few +1's on my company's homepage. I think as google+ becomes more popular (which I think it will), people will start actively using the +1 button.

RE: High PR vs Low PR and Relative
PR 4's and 5's are definitely of value, but I would probably take a 7.
I forget who, but someone talked about the "trickle-down theory" at the SMX Advanced link building presentation. If you get a link from a high ranking website, chances are there are many smaller sites that spin their content or write followups that will also contain a link. So your single PR 7 link just turned into a PR7, plus 3 PR6's, Plus 30 PR5's, etc.
That being said, a link from a PR 4 or 5 site that's within your category would definitely help.

RE: Breadcrumb Trail for SEO?
Breadcrumbs are a great way to create "Virtual" content hubs, and establish yourself as an authority on a topic or theme.

RE: Website Restructure - Good or Bad for SEO?
Our site is doing the same. EZWatch-Security-Cameras.com
Restructuring allows you to organize your content into "Silos" and eliminate some of the unnecessary links through JSON objects, iframes, and nofollows (some debate there on which is optimal).
The Downfalls: There will probably be a 30-90 day dip in traffic but if you do page-to-page 301's it won't hurt nearly as much. Anytime you change URL's you are likely to see some inbound links drop off, but that happens when the pages don't change, so it's going to be minimal. Sure, 301's might drop some of your PR during transfer, but only a minimal amount according to matt cutts.
The Benefits: Organizing your content into silos and pruning cross-category links will allow you to control the flow of pagerank and anchor text much more effectively. Bruce Clay has a huge amount of resources on this, and they even cover it on their blog.
Will it be painful? Yes.
Will it be worth it? Yes.

RE: How do I get content to be indexed at the top?
Using CSS Absolute Positioning.
You need to add a hook to the P tag, such as a class or ID. Then make room for the paragraph at the bottom of the page by placing some sort of spacer there, like an empty div with fixed width and height.

RE: Difficulty Using GWO?
Google has some great help resources when it comes to their products. I would check the GWO help section first.

RE: Linkbuilding on deep Blog pages
The search engine spiders will look at a page to determine if something has changed. If there is a 10% change in body content, then it might not require a re-index for the spiders. If the heading tags change, then it might deserve a refresh.
I think your link will be indexed eventually, but if nothing else on the page changes, it's going to take longer.

RE: Why am i still getting duplicate page title warnings after implementing canonical URLS?
Not specifically, but with the rel=canonical tag, it should ignore them.
Google views the canonical tag as a guideline, not necessarily a command. They do this to prevent people from shooting themselves in the foot by misusing or improperly applying the tag. It may be useful to still have pages crawled regardless of the canonical tag.
I suggest that you ignore the warnings for canonical pages and focus on the others. Perhaps SEOMoz could build some logic into their crawls to handle this in the future.

RE: Question on Links from Directories…
Link Directories don't have anything to do with your category (unless you are also a directory) and so they won't provide as much value as a link from a similar ranking site within your category.

RE: Can the +1 (Google plus one) Button have a BAD effect on your site?
The +1 button was intended as a positive ranking signal, and I don't think it will ever hurt your rankings. Bruce Clay jokingly referred to it as a +1 to load times, and that's where you might see the difference.
The "block site" option, on the other hand, can be a negative ranking signal when it's used frequently for your site.

RE: Archive older, low ranked content to help new content in Panda 2.2?
It always hurts to trim existing content, but I think it probably needs to be done.
Google is making a lot of changes to improve the user experience, and if your site is delivering a lot of bounced visitors then google might view it as a poor user experience.

RE: DUPLICATE PAGE TITLE ISSUE
Is there a reason you have 25 different pages? Could you consolidate everything into one page or does each page offer a separate download item?
If they are different tasks, they should have different titles. If they are the same, then there should probably only be one page.

RE: Meta tags question - imagetoolbar
Check out this article - http://www.metatags.org/meta_http_equiv_imagetoolbar
"Using this imagetoolbal tag doesn't influence your ranking with the search engines."
It should be okay to delete them.

RE: Tool for extracting search queries
Maybe you could describe what you need that data for? Google Analytics normally records that data for natural search visits, but if you are looking to dynamically insert the keywords that requires some code work.

RE: Help with Brands Facebook page
I would request that they create a special email address for you, such as nomad(at)site(dot)com and use that for the facebook business admin.
As mentioned above, fan pages have a lot more useful tools. You can see some cool examples at facebook.com/redbull and facebook.com/cocacola

RE: Why am i still getting duplicate page title warnings after implementing canonical URLS?
I wonder if the SEOMoz Crawls account for canonical tags when checking?

RE: Does a CDN affect search rankings?
As far as I know, the urls of your additional resources such as images, css, and scripts shouldn't affect your SEO either way.
