http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Webmasters/thread?tid=6a1d6250e26e9e48&hl=en http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Webmasters/thread?tid=... Let me guess: 1. Google's Pagerank patent is about to expire, and they have to make something new? 2. New ranking algorithm adjustment to compete with Bing but failed? And similar discussions on reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9qro1/ http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9qro1/ http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9s6p2/ http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9s6p2/

The pagerank patent isn't really relevant anymore as the search algorithm has so many more components and variants now. Pagerank as it is defined is a much smaller signal than people think.
