Looking back over this past week, it was overwhelmingly dominated by posts on the Page Rank update.
It seems everyone found some way to be touched by this in one way or the other, even if it was just to read the rantings and ravings about Google’s Page Rank update. Especially over the weekend when page rank updates seemed to be just flying in every direction.
I did try to read as many of these posts as I could, and I even contributed to the mayhem myself in, What Happened to My Page Rank, Another Goal Reached?, when my Page Rank actually went up to my surprise. Being at a PR0 I didn’t have any place to go but up, so a PR2 was a welcome thing to me. One of the funniest posts I have seen so far was posted over the weekend, Google PageRank algorithm leaked, it is certainly worth a quick read, and was quite funny.
Because there were so many starred items on that particular subject, I am just going to leave out all posts having to do with the page rank update. If you want more information about that issue just do a quick blog search for page rank update and you can find more than enough to read. A quick housekeeping note. The winner of the favicon for one month is The Computer Zone, so send me a quick email with your preference for a large or small icon and the url you want linked to and I will update it asap. If you want or need me to create a 16×16px or 26×26px icon just let me know. Contact me through “chipseo [at] gmail dot com” and if I don’t hear from the winner by the end of the day I will get in touch with you.
