Tech
Right now you're probably thinking, is it technology? technical? techno?
The answer: Yes.
This is the most comprehensive reference on the interweb for all things drupal related, from theming to configuration, custom coding, and even server setup. There's even some stuff on Wordpress...
Well, uh, maybe not the most comprehensive, or comprehensive at all for that matter, but there is some really useful information here, and we are constantly adding more of it.
Some of us more than others...

Adding (verifying) your Drupal site to Google's Webmaster Tools
I don't see an API for your entire Google account coming soon, or Google should already be able to skip the verification step for sites using Google analytics.
So the easiest way is to make a new node or create a new path alias to an existing page with the path that google wants: googleed909f3ff5bcb87e.html in this case.
And delete it afterward.

E-mails being sent or nodes being saved by batch api breaking on a regular schedule just during cron runs
If you are having weird problems in Batch API processes, such as the base URL for notification e-mails being replaced with something less-than-useful like /var/www/drupal, the culprit may be (somehow) cron.php being called by a command line script (rather than curl or something going to cron.php over the internet).
