		<description>My page rank also dropped from PR6 to PR5 and I have no idea why.  I wonder if there are other sites experiencing a drop and this is some greater overhaul?</description>

		<description>techburgh, watch out you don't lose yours too, I notice you are doing paid reviews which is a likely cause for this type of penalty.

andy beard, Y! links for me shows 13k to just the home page, but shows 38.8k to the entire site which is what I was referring to. and if you look most are very high quality, targeted, and natural.</description>

		<description>In some ways for me the worst thing are those web design blogs in many ways (those with exceptional content) that can roll up a PR6 almost overnight.

I don't know how much you can rely on Yahoo backlinks these days, but when I check you only have 12K

It all really comes down to the quality of links, but if you have continued to gane them, then being knocked off a PR5 is rough.

That being said, your site is still in flux, though showing mainly PR4

		<description>TechBurgh got a PR4 for it's first this week. I was quite surprised. 
I'm not terribly concerned about PageRank though. 
I'd rather follow on Compete, which gives a broader, more in-depth analysis. (in which you also kick my butt!) http://siteanalytics.compete.com/googletutor.com+techburgh.com?metric=uv  

I'd not loose any sleep over it. As long as people are visiting your site (which they evidently are) be happy with that. Not belittling it though. 

Oh, great blog by the way :)</description>
