    Don't redirect to the WWW just yet! Check to see which one is "worth" more. If the non-www is the one that has more backlinks and has the PR of 2, don't redirect to the www. If it's the other way around, go ahead and redirect to the www.

    It's called canonicalization.

    Here and here it's explained by Matt Cutts.

    It's a pretty interesting read. I've also found this to be the case between http and https for the exact same url otherwise.

    It all depends on which way sites are linking to you. If they are using simply site.com, then that will gain PR and vise versa.

    did exactly that. I wonder how long it takes until google links the two sites together. Could it be the next time they cache my site?
