Spotted this news floating around, so decided to do some detective work which led to to this blog. If you guys believed what she wrote, you are nuts. She labelled it clearly as “humor”.
This got to be the hoax of the year! I give Adsense Tracker my double thumbs up for coming up with something like this and actually have people believing in it and blog about it.
Me too was taken by it when I read it in some more “serious” blog. The reason for my digging, but I can’t say it won’t happen one day though. Maybe not as far out as Adsense Tracker made it to be, but there is a near possibility.

LOL For a moment you got me
Blek.. too good to be true eh? Google PR is here to stay. lol But they (Google) sure is taking their time to update…
i guess google might no longer to update the pr, or probably change to a new system to measure the standard of websites.
LOL!! Thanks for the link love!
It is funny how people can read that post and take away what they want to hear, or what they are scared of
I really tried to do everything I could to leave clues that it was a joke without announcing it in the 1st paragraph.
O well, I have a clear concience
If there is no longer PR here, how will those link selling and pay per post programme survives without this rating system?
If PR is removed, some system must step in! If not, we might have Yahoo RIP (another hoax by me)!
I think the hoax got a round quite a bit because I remember reading about page rank going in a few places.
Seems to be a case of viral, er, anti-marketing.
