I've read enough SEO websites to know that there is a lot of misinformation out there about META tags and the robots tag is one of them. Some people think that it can't hurt to throw one in there. Well, its an extra line of code that is useless.
I remember way back when when I first started developing meta tags. My initial list was at least 20 tags long and I was looking for more. This was back in 1996 when SE's were indexing certain meta tags. Everyone was packing their <head>'s with tags for every little thing. Heck, some even got creative and implemented their own tags. I've seen some good ones! ;)
