I don't think you can make a blanket-statement about search engine
friendly URLs...

I mean, they all work a bit different, and all of them will have their
own heuristic of what makes a URL "better" to follow or index or rank.

Of course, the actualy CONTENT of the page ocunts for a lot more, but
the URL is taken into account still.

There's also the crucial question of HUMAN usability -- Oft-times what
people were making for a nice easy SEO friendly URL had the added
bonus, and sometimes pre-requisite, of being a URL humans can
remember...

Some people have a "gift" link here.
Know what I want?
I want you to buy a CD from some indie artist.
http://cdbaby.com/browse/from/lynch
