I'm a two-page guy myself but a recruiter recently told me that nowadays with job searching being done by recruiters who 'grep' your resume for keywords, that longer and more detailed is fine. And, hiring managers want to see more, if you have it and it's informative. But that could also be done by having a 'misc. skills' section I imagine.

Good advice. 2 pages is ideal but in some cases there is enough relevant info to warrant more than that, particularly if you've led a reasonably accomplished career.

An honest list of languages & tech and an honest appraisal of your skill level in each. (Don't include things like mongoDB because it's a hot-topic and you've read the wiki page.)

A list of your accomplishments.

A list of personal work that's relevant to your interests & chosen career path (always link to your work).

Lists are great, mainly because no-one see's the value in reading purple prose about how you are a dynamic and self-motivated individual.
