There is NOT a PR Update going on!

I know most of my family and friends that have it. Not a statistical proof but the general population is aware of what google offers for sure.

 

Isn't a 403 normal for a direct visit? Are you getting errors in your scripts because of the -auto lookup?

 

I'd still keep the toolbar (in IE) because it's damn handy for doing quick searches.

Firefox has its own built in toolbar so I'd rip out the standalone PR plugin I currently have.

But yeah, I like the toolbar and would continue to use it; of course, I'd disable the "send my personal info" checkbox if it wasn't going to give me PR info

Personally I think since my rankings haven't changed much, all they're doing is blocking access to PR info via the API & toolbar. Not a big deal, like people keep saying, it's SERPs that are important.

Not sure I buy any of this Trust Rank stuff either. Reasoning:
1) It would confuse the issue too much to introduce a major factor as well as PR;
2) PR is still too valuable and useful to just dump it

 

Yeah getting in the scripts as well:

http://www.searchengineengine.com/

and if I check my pagerarnk here Pagerank

I am getting 70 out of 10

 

WOW a PR70 you must go into link selling now.

 

Is it really? If it was just a glitch, wouldnt they just rollback?

The arguments that it was useless and meaningless anyway hold more water for me - that says to me that Google would be looking for something better and implementing something better.

 

On a site full of redirects? I'll pass.

I have a PR70, too. What are text-based anchor links worth on my page?

 

Yeah, I almost just had a heart attack and saw nothing... *phew*

 

Like maybe a search engine not affected by a 302 redirect bug?

 

failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 403
Wouldn't they just 404 if PageRank were dead?

 

no, and I got rif of it as well

 

I have it on one computer for onvienance, and dont use it anywhere else

 

If you want to find a good domain, buy one that has been indexed for a few years without being penalized

 

I think Google is having fun with this ...

 

I want a hummer.

 

Yeah, you and everyone else...

 

Well, you have to buy the girl dinner first.... then take her to a movie.... then be real nice........ and then do what all us dudes do beg for it.

 

Do you think PR dead ?
Or is it that toolbar PR is only dead and we will be having internal PR ?

 

I think its gone completely, and being replaces with something else.

 

I have 2 pr4 links lifetime I'll trade for a hummer. I hope pr aint dead!
