You just might be right though t10 .... the "safe bet" of the 25th has come and gone. No doubt expertu is right though, G continues to have a good laugh over it all. I wouldn't be surprised to see the update happen on the night of President Bush's State of the Union address, just so that the buzz on the Internet the following day will be their update and not his speech
the amount of people interested in tool bar update is nothing compared to those interested in the State Of The Union speech. *Comic Book Store Guy* "worst analgy ever!!"
I don't want an update until....2/14/06. I want my new contest sites, and other sites to have enough time to get some PR!!!
As far as Google is concerned your sites already their PR. So what and when they show us is irrelevant, waiting for these updates really is too IMO. One of my sites of toolbar pr0 has just jumped up 4 pages (to 1st page) for 3 keywords I'm tracking. I'm not expecting much more improvement after the next public PR update.
I got sites that are just a few days old and Google needs to find the back-links to those first! While sites that I made a week ago do show PR in the PR perdiction sites.
