    How many of you had a higher page rank earlier, then had it drop back down to normal again?

    Earlier two of my sites increased in PR:

    http://www.videobloggingtips.com/ PR from a 2 to a 3
    http://www.howtofallasleepeasily.com/ PR from a 0 to a 2

    After 9:00 PM Pacific - 12:00 AM Eastern, my PR on both of my sites dropped back to normal.

    What's the catch?

    [UPDATE] It seems my PR is changing between the old and new update. We'll see what happens.

    I think the PR update is still ongoing. During this time, PR fluctuations are normal because different data centers are getting updated with the PR info for each site.

    PR Update is still going on. I dont think it will hurt my traffic if the page rank goes down. Because i have seen a lot of people with no effect after PR drop.

    Definitely not an April Fools Joke, that would be a nice way to screw with Webmasters emotions, there would be rioting and looting! :)
