Well, I'm getting a big fat zero right now... That's quite a slap if it is... But I'm not backing down on now.

Yeah,

It is back and working fine now. Even other PR sites are showing proper results.

I was going to ask the designer of the oyoy.eu search engine tools why he thought it was still working, and others were having problems. But since he's a Googler now I didn't want to put him an awkward position of me asking a question he probably can't answer fully.

I've got to admit, I don't think the PR downgrades has ever been a mainly manual process - I think it has been, and still is, an algorithmic process guided by human editing. But that's just my 2c. :)

At least no one can say that the PR ride hasn't been fun. For all the talk about it becoming an irrelevant statistic, people sure do enjoy talking about it - and more enjoy reading.

I'd be fascinated to read an official release by Google on their intentions for PR to see where they eventually want to go with it. It seems that most of the information seeping out of the Googleplex has been excuses.

I have four sites, all of them were PR 4 to start with. In round one, two of them went down to a PR 2, which I might have expected because I'm not actually using them--they do have some text but it's only minimal. The two I use, including my blog, so far have remained stable. Now I'm worried though, despite the fact that I've never bought or sold a link in my life.

Fox News also took a hit, but CNN went up. Figure that out.

Yeah I went to a 5 after round three, but have now dropped to a 3.

Couldn't care less anymore......

On the plus side, more people are requesting private text links and reviews than before. Go figure Google :-)

My site seems to be holding on to its PR. Will have to wait and see. I guess all should follow the step taken by searchengineguide - Remove ad links from index page. Better still, I think its best not to have any outbound link from your home page.

Yeah it has hit some of my sites as well.. I tot I escaped their deathblade earlier as one of my site maintained as PR4, but it was soon reduced to PR2...

I wonder what are they doing?

I've been dropped to a 2 from 3. What's funny is that I don't sell text links. Oh before I forget, your link to searchengineguide seems to be missing an "a".

Andy (and everyone else)... just so you know, it is the tools that are not working, in the method they are using to poll for a particular datacenter's PageRank, not the datacenters themselves. I can manually hit a specific datacenter to see what PR it has for a given URL, and have done so with the ones that DigPageRank shows and they are actually working fine (except for the ones showing "OFF", which are just unreachable).
