Google PageRank Update Confuses Webmasters

Are you waiting for the 1st Pagerank update for 2011? The long wait is over because according to webmasters who are following PR updates, there is an update happening today - January 20, 2011. But this update brings chaos in the blogosphere. Some received an increase in PR, others received a negative or decrease in PR.
I first heard about the latest PR update from Digital Forums with the thread title - Google PR Update Today. Some bloggers or webmasters noticed this update but there are also who are not aware about it. After hearing about what they have been discussing in the forum, i hastily checked the pagerank of my SEO and money making blog . I was shocked with what i saw in Google PR toolbar generated in a Google Pagerank Checker site. Before the rumored update, my PR was O. I'm expecting for PR 1 or PR 2 but it's sad to say i got N/A PR. It's not only me who suffered with a decrease in PR. There are bloggers who claimed that their PR5 blog has become PR4.

The estimated time noted about the latest PR update in 2011 was 6:35 Thursday (EST), time in Washington, DC, USA.

Some related news about Pagerank Toolbar update: On 4th January, 2011 Google employee JohnMU has provided an insight about Google PR Update. We can expect a major update very shortly according to him, he has quoted "We do update the Toolbar PageRank regularly, even if that's not as regularly as some of you wish. I agree that it would be nice to have it updated more frequently. Given the time since the last update, I imagine you'll start seeing another one in the near future."

How and why webmasters want to increase Google Pagerank

If you have a positive change in PR, well, kudos for your blog!
If you suffer a negative or decrease in PR, don't cry! Google had been reminding all webmasters to focus in producing  quality content and not be obsessed with Pagerank. I am very much optimistic that i can bring a lot of traffic for my blog eventhough i have a PR 0 or N/A. But i still hope that Google will double check and make a follow-up update if they have done some mistakes with the algorithm they are using today. Maybe my blog's PR is a result of some technical errors. I do hope Google will award me PR2 or PR3.
