Darn it people:
1) "About Us" is *not* a resource. Be logical.
2) It's not about what you want to tell the user, it's about what the
user wants to know.

I'm sure you'd be delighted to show people your blog and pictures of
your dog and tell everyone why you love OOo so much, but what really
matters is that the visitor finds what he's looking for without
thinking. Read a book on website usability and then come tell me that
"About Us" belongs on a prominent location under "Resources".
Stop thinking from a marketing POV, start thinking from a user service
POV. The website is not for you, it's for the incomming visitors. It's
not about your sharing to the world what you love about OOo, it's about
providing the service that the user wants.
"RESOURCES" vs. "About Us"
These two don't match.
Darn it, even if you absolutely cannot live without a link that says
"About Us", at least put it somewhere semi-logical. It's not a resource.
Also, stop adding links. We ahave to remove lniks, not add more. If
you have to add an "About Us" link, then tell us what we will remove
to make room for it, and why the average visitor would be more
interested in that link than in whatever you are removing.
