Anyone have any guesses as to when we can expect a new systemwide PR update?

I would love to see a blog entry from the Googler who gets the lucky job of pushing the big red button (or command, but a bit less dramatic) that propagates the Pagerank update across your datacenters .. oh what a feeling .. oh what a job.

So the sky may go back up again. Oh good becuase its very very heavy!

lexipixel, lol, you forgot "(Between A) Rock In A Hard Place". Worst Stones' song ever...

>> Oh good becuase its very very heavy...

I am with you on that one, all the way

Hi GG ...

If an established, legitimate, relevant-to-our-sector site that we link to went to PR0 some months ago (they said due to a DNS problem), is it a good idea to remove those links to them?

no i don't really expect an answer but you can't blame me for askin'!

GG, let's hope you're right with my sites because last night (NZ) I went to bed and dreamt that the sky had fallen big time.

I have to be honest and say that a lot of rubbish has disappeared from our industry and that is great! but when I saw half of our traffic go, I used the expression 'baby out with the bathwater'

I am praying that our traffic comes back and there are a couple more switches to press because I feel that we produce damn good and informative sites according to the word of Google and I know that other webmasters like myself are feeling the same.

Heavy - I am with you more than anyone so far, it was like the Northridge Earthquake Overpass just fell on my car and I was in the lane below.

Really * heavy! - Jeesh Please help....

If the PR/backlink update is delayed, I'll let people know.

GG, after a PR/backlink update, how long does it take to update SERP?

It is most important to keep some sort of discussions ongoing with such a change in Algo "Stuff".

As a webmaster for many sites and all White-hat ones at that, these days it is crucial to be ethical about posting of information to us all to a degree.

I always report problem sites to you (GG) via the online Google webmaster page tools; I am not the only one that helps Google with the SERPS and Algo in reporting the bad... being fair is a request at this point. We do our part, it's your turn. (Tag your it - Smiling)

Please explain the overpass that fell on me and others.

I came out of the sandbox two weeks ago and was hoping that this update would give me some lift. Still running about 450-500 in the serps for keywords. ridiculous. Way behind some of the most non-pertinent results out there. I'm afraid this is just a 'heartbreaker' for me.
