google backlinks messed up ?

[Linkster]

Backlinks as mentioned already havent been right on Google since a year ago - and they did it on purpose after it was suggested at one of the conferences by a member of a major SEO msg board - Google liked the idea and implemented it - this also affects all of the tools that query Google for thier backlinks

Yahoo on the other hand is a closer representation of your actual backlinks count

The PR bar has been a useless tool for at least the last year as well - probably closer to two years now - it hasnt reflected the true page rank of a page in that long - and rumours are saying that it may completely go away with the new issue of the toolbar coming up

SEO_Konsul - Id be interested in knowing where you got your information or are you just spouting off things youve heard somewhere else? Making statements without at least a reference to their source as a matter of fact is rather unprofessional in my opinion.
