Blogosphere News

Came across this site and found it pretty useful. Blogosphere News offers links to articles covering topics dear to Googbie hearts like page rank, design, internet marketing, etc....

I followed one link to the article 'The Significance of Page Rank' and found it particularly interesting.

As most Googbies are aware there are a lot of blogs out there with page rank that they're envious of. Well it seems the recent Google attack on sites' page rank wasn't limited to just web directories, the attack was part of a web-wide assault on all types of sites including blogs. Apparently a lot of blogs got whacked by Google every bit as hard as web directories like Alive Directory, Aviva Directory and my very own Big Guide and Web Directory got whacked.

On a side note I was quite surprised that a blog of mine that I had all but forgotten actually had it's page rank go UP. I have no idea why, but the PR of my Security Software Stop blog went from a PR2 to PR3. While it's like finding a $20 bill in a winter coat not worn for 8 months what I dislike about the change is not having any clue what caused it to increase! Seems the way to get page rank is to place a site in a dark closet and completely forget about it.
