Only time will tell, yes, but I've got too much to do on my sites to sit around until next Spring to see if Google is still stringing us along. I need some way to be judged on something else other than a crusty, ancient and rapidly aging metric called PageRank (unless I'm the lucky winner of one of the monthly everyone-calls-it-an-update-even-just-about-nothing-gets-updated updates... got to buy my ticket now!)
I don't care when google will updated PR... I'm just keep focused on my site SERP... it is more and more important..
LOL! I agree focus on ranking well and ignore the toolbar. Its Google's way to quietly torture webmasters ;-)
