I have an antistatic mat on the floor in front of my server rack similar

Simple, does the job, and it also  feels good on the feets!

If you spend a lot of time in your server room, you might also consider

It will add moisture to your room and give you something to look at 
other than flashing leds:-)

Sorry for that but this list really needs to lighten up.
