gargamel is great
worstseedever is actually one of my favorites. Be careful though, because you'll spawn next to a dungeon. There's a pit to your left which sand falls in, revealing it. Not sure if the items are generated entirely randomly upon creation or if they sort of predetermine themselves by a template pattern within the engine of Minecraft, but I got three iron bars so I could instantly punch down a tree and start with an iron pickaxe. 
Not only that, but it's connected to a cave which goes all the way down to a bunch of lava pits so if you go non-stop you could probably wind up having all diamond tools by the time the sun sets. Very handy.

I got three iron ingots as well, as well as a saddle, 4 string, and I think some cocoa beans. I swear that these things are both embedded in the seeds and the engine...
gm_construct is a surprisingly good seed. Something with buildcraft makes it have ridiculous amounts of oil (I mean RIDICULOUS) on my first time generating it, I spawned within far render distance of a Large size oil well, and a bit away was another large and like 4 medium ones. You also spawn in a small grove of rubber trees with many other rubber trees nearby. Plus, there's a badass overhang about 300 blocks from the spawn.
