My site last month was a PR 2, then after the last dance went to a PR 4, and today its gone up to a PR 5. Google is still showing cached info for my site when it was a PR 2.
All I can think of is that I have made some nice links incoming and these are now being seen.
Although I thought this only happened during the dance. i.e a great PR 7 link to my site went live last night and today I'm a PR 5....is it coincidence or does it really work that fast.
I can't wait till the next dance as my content and other links have gone up 100 times at least.....PR 6/7 maybe would be nice....

In my experience, no. I wonder if links from 'Fresh' pages are getting recognised for PR better than before.
Pure speculation: Google presumably have to iterate PageRank a couple of dozen times or more for the full update, but if they take the last full update as the starting point, maybe two or three iterations should be enough to let newly found links play their part. Interim updates based on recently found changes might be economical and improve result quality?
looks like the effect you described, however I have never seen inter-update PR changes nor heard anyone post of them before.
In steps Junior Google, he is the little fella looking for the new stuff. I visualise Junior Google as being a seperate dB whose results are "injected" into the main SERP's. Google's achilles heel has always been their slow update cycle, 60 days to find and *rank* new content is simply too long on the fast moving www. Their solution, imho, is to add new sites between update cycles and guess the PR.
looks like a bit of NFFC's effect as quoted in message 11 of this thread?
