Greetings,

I found a funny thing (donīt know if anyone has mentioned it before).
If you search for http:// the top ranking sites are displayed... and Yahoo (1š) appears above Google (2š)!
What a strange thing... is Yahooīs PR 10.1 :)?

Sincerely,

Nuno Oliveira

Why do you think that Yahoo's got more PR than Google?

Probably because yahoo had more occurances of 'http://' on the front page, google only has 3.

Well... why is Yahoo above Google? Any specific reason? More optimized? I donīt think so... more links? Maybe... it says Yahoo has 2.5 times more links than Google..

Here is the ranking when you search for http://

Yahoo!
Google
Microsoft
Adobe
Altavista
My Excite
Amazon
CNN
Lycos
Go (Infoseek)
My Site (I wish :p Maybe if I ask Santa Claus, lol)

Bye,

Nuno Oliveira

But searching for 'http' does not mean obtaining the PR...

If you search for 'http' or 'www', you don't get 'nasa.gov' (PR10).

I didnīt meant that it should return the PR :) That 10.1 was a joke. As I said maybe itīs from the number of inbound links, I donīt know...
