Odd backlink counts

[stripey]

no backlinks to my sites which seems a bit funny so i did a link:www.google.com and got a mere 333000.

is the command working right or am i missing something?

yep shows 330,000 for me too. Sticky mail me your URL, let me take a look.

oh i'm not greatly concerned about the sites. i just thought google's backlink count of itself was a bit on the low side even given the PR4 cut off.

might be completely normal though. i don't pay attention to G's scores much ;-)
