Toolbar greyed for all sites?

Google's toolbar not showing PR anymore?

[cigjonser]

Does anyone else see the toolbar greyed out for all sites? I'm not getting anything.

Here intermittently also.. Manchester (England)

Does anyone besides me think Spiff1971 is a Google employee in sheep's clothing?

Back in The Benelux as well... Not stable, though.

[antonaf]

PR back for me (NC, USA) but its not stable.

[alias]

Back here in Lithuania too, acting strange though.

I think GoogleGuy has just been to the office and put the plug back in ;)

They could have at least tweaked the PR system before plugging it back in... Appears to be no PR update with Bourbon.. Never Mind :(

"infrastructure, not update :) "

If Google would've said that, great. But they didn't so an update was assumed.

It was a long weekend in the US. People were expected to be out and about on the first long weekend of the summer, rather than using the internet. Major server upgrades/whatever are scheduled for when traffic is expected to be low. The toolbar PR was down for a few days while work was being done, nothing terribly out of the ordinary. This non-event resulted in a forty page thread at WW.

Think what you like of G, (I consider it a monster, myself), it's not really incumbent on them to issue a major press release every time they do some work on a part of their gazillions of boxes. If people want to jump to wild conclusions when it happens, that's not G's responsibility.
