Wouldn't it be fun if Yahoo/MSN also start something like PR?

    Having seen thousands of PR threads in the past couple of months on DP alone, I wonder why Yahoo/MSN hasn't started something like that? :) Even if they don't get nearly as much free advertising as Google, at least they can create more excitement and confusion among webmasters. Anyone got an insider to pass on the tip?

    You mean a public PR? It's likely they have a similar value but keep it in secret. Right now I think it would be good if Google did too.

    From my experience I'd say that they weigh links and their relevancy aswell in their own ways... they just don't put a number on it like G does... :D

    exactly. they've had their own version of PR for years, and it's probably pretty smart of them NOT to release it to the public, if you think about the current state of google PR.
