Is Google updating?
We (all of the posties) think so, because established page rank numbers are bouncing up and down the scale. Very nerve-racking when one needs a certain PR in order to monetize a blog. So we’re all scrambling around to get new links in and out, installing search tools that tell Alexa we’re alive and pretty much standing on our heads to do whatever is necessary to get that all-important PR. I’ve decided today that my PR will be whatever my blog is worth. Yes, I’ll keep doing the right things, but I’m going to quit stressing and worrying. If Google is unkind this time around, so be it. My domain is, after all, brand new. I’ll continue to blog, hopefully with quality content that some folks want to read from time to time and, if Google finds me unworthy this time, well, that won’t be the end of the world, will it?
But, just in case … here’s the number that Bloglines says I should put into post so that they can track my blog and perhaps someday, someway, contribute to my worthiness. Are you happy, Bloglines? Do I exist to you now? We’ll see.

You post therefore you are.

Hee hee! Apparently that was an invisble tracking number, because I don’t see it in the post. Mus thave worked because bloglines knows now that I exist.
And, yep … blogging has become quite a focus in my life. Some would say a bit too much of a focus. (They might be right!)

Hmmm I’ve been on Bloglines for ever. I don’t seem to remember having to put a tracking code in my posts. is this something new perhaps? Gotta go check this out.
Yeah, since I have some newish blogs as well I’m trying to do a lot of PR work etc too. It’s tedious but it needs to be done.
I’m sure you new domain will gain some PR. You’ve worked hard it’ll move from the big zero. Don’t worry.
BTW once you get your new blogs up and running, remember that as you comment on other peoples sites alternate your url so that you get some technorati link backs to your new sites too. I often just comment with my main site addy, but I try to comment using my other site links every now and then too.
