I’m King of the PR!
Here’s a totally pointless post, but I have to make it. Today I was looking at the Google “PR” value for the ReveNews home page and I noticed that it was a 3/10, but then I noticed that my blog was a 5/10!?! Amazed that my page could be higher than the home page, I had to check out everyone else’s page and to my astonishment, I have the highest value. Imagine that!
Obviously this has nothing to do with how many posts we’ve made or how good looking we are or even how popular we were in high school. My only serious thought on this is that the Google algorithm is using our inbound and outbound links to get these differences in value, and that analysis could take more time than I have right now. If I do have the time, I can do a serious follow up to this.
Or not. I can’t believe I trusted the anonymous source of the research. I think it was the same one used by Newsweek. Full research shows that I compared apples to oranges and compared “www.revenews.com/bradwaller” to “revenews.com” and “revenews.com/author”. Google scores the page differently if you have the www prefix, and it turns out I’m also the goat of PR value with a big fat “0″ for my www prefix site.
Here’s a corrected listing of the PR scores as of today, May 26, 2005, taking into account the www. and the no prefix values:

Brad, we need to find you some more constructive things to do. Haha.
I can’t believe I’m at a big fat 0. Even Molander beat me, rats!
Brad, something is wrong with your computer. Yes, you have a PR5. Molander was the first to get it a few months ago (after the home page which is still a PR5). There are a few others now too.
Jim, you are a PR5 so you can sleep better at night.
I’m glad to see there is no competition at Revenews.
Mine is showing as a 5/10 right now! Google is in the midst of a massive update.
Oh, and you have my name linked to Jim Kukrals page. Trying to sabotage me?
LOL - you’re the man - us lowly 4’s will endeavor to post more and knock you off your throne
Let’s all post and see who’s first to hit a 7!
Update - i phoned Google and they informed me they penalized my site due to my picture (same goes for your molander) LOL
Apparently their algorithm prefers gruff looking bearded men (but that’s set to change when they update it without warning)
Oh, I am so embarassed over not checking things properly. Google PR values vary between the http://www. and no prefix domains! I’ll have to update the above table with all values or else I’ll look like a hack journalist.
Hey Brad,
You BROKE GOOGLE by talking about your PR. Now this whole site and every other site on the net is PR 0 - even Google.
Can’t resist - have to show you my Friday Funny Google Cartoon.
Caption “My PR is Bigger than Yours!”

That will teach you to talk about how big your PR is!
