You can sort it out yourself. Get that site-wide 301 redirect in place.

Definately a tweak or two. I'm showing an increase in backlinks.
When it comes to the current situation of 64.233.187.104 and 64.233.187.99, I guess you are beating a dead horse ;-)
Allow me to recall what GG just posted yesterday:
I talked to one of the engineers who would know, and it turns out that it's an engineer who has grabbed the 64.233.187.whatever datacenter for himself to tinker around with making info: queries slightly more accurate. I don't expect the visible/external info: or backlink data to spread to other data centers (or if it did, not for a long time).
Funny how the related: command all of a sudden is better than ever. I think there is more to this data center than everyone is letting on. Maybe it's just not ready for prime time yet, but I do believe we are seeing a preview of the future.
After all, what's part of info:

This is a VERY interesting point. Using the related: command to search for my competitors, I see my own site listed each time in the top five.
I wonder if this is indicative of the fact that google views my site as a prime example of its kind, eg an 'authority' site.

All other search engines seem to figure out www vs non-wwwThe content of that thread too makes me very wary of the 301 solution.
I'll give it a month or so and see what happens as things are...if I'm still supplemental I guess I'll have to try the 301 route.

Do it now. Google rewards it.
The site count here is some wierd bug, because when you go a page further, the count goes double and so on.
I was SOooooo right!
GoogleGuy: "it's an engineer who has grabbed the 64.233.187.whatever datacenter for himself to tinker around with making info: queries slightly more accurate."
I've said "that must be some geek at google playing around with +/- button" :c)

Remember that infrastructure that we talked about by the end of the summer that as a by-product would make site: searches more accurate? My guess is that 64.233.187.104 has that infrastructure turned off, so that the site: results estimates appear higher at that data center. But again, I think the lower numbers at other data centers are more likely to be right.
Again, not much to see overall; just an engineer tinkering with a data center on their own.

Thanks for feedback.
No harm done as long as that daynamic engineer doesn't start tinkering with The Mother of The New Infrastructure 72.14.207.104 :-)
I suppose it's not beyond the realms of possibility that Google are monitoring all of the site: searches on this test server and looking to apply penalties or some other fun thing to those unsuspecting webmasters.Yours Always Suspicious of Google's Intentions

Stop trying to soften me up ... I know you work for Google and you're trying to get my secrets ;-)

why does a "link:www.widget.com" differ from a "link www.widget.com" command
link:www.widget.com searches for links to that site
link www.widget.com is just an ordinary search for the keyword "link" and the keywords www.widget.com
It's almost as if they don't show us the good ones on purpose. Just recently going through another engine I found at article that had been written about one of the widgets we sell and they linked to us as a point of purchase. I never even knew this was there.
"It's almost as if they don't show us the good ones on purpose."
Ding, ding, ding, ding! That has been a favorite theory of mine for ages.
As for the PR update...Where? Somebody please tell me where to look.
PR! Bawahahahaaaaa! I MUST have more PR!
I am seeing a back link and pr update as well.
I'm seing PR move on 75% of the Futurepagerank DC's too.

Could you be a bit more specific?
Something is afoot for sure. Maybe the PR has jumped and it just isn't showing yet. I think GG said that it updates constantly but that "toolbar" PR is only updated occasionally (if I understood correctly).
Could you be a bit more specific?
Sure. Using the #*$! FPR tool, yesterday showed 2 DC's with a fluctuation, while my site showed the old PR. Today, most of the DC's show a new PR on the FPR tool, and my site is now showing it (as of about an hour ago) too.
