I don't see any reason to have a SSN or Passport No. on the tag as medical personal will not be able to access that information easily. While a link to a webpage is a good idea, I'm not sure it will help in an emergency. Also, I doubt that doctors would trust someone's dog tag/Road ID for blood type as they have quick tests for such things.
The tag I have I ordered over the web for a few dollars and it came with a chain, though the amount of information I can put on it is limited.
I saw that recommended before, the dog tag for dogs. It's a great option, and many pet stores, like Petsmart actually have vending machines that make them.
