I think we should take calculating PR stuff in our own hands now...
Google seems to forgotten the formula...
j/k

The formula is...

*drumroll*

1 keyword text + 1 backlink = 2 PR

This is a pretty good explanation:

but I agree with those above, don't worry about PR, just get backlinks.

Personally, I'm a big fan of http://www.seocompany.ca/pagerank/pa...lculation.html

I think he lays it out well and doesn't provide too much droning or useless info - it's succinct and complete. It's also fairly up-to-date, which I really appreciate.

IMHO calculating PageRank is a waste of time.

1.) the calculations could change whenever google feels like it.
2.) the info they display is outdated.
3.) the info they display is a course linear output for a logarithmic value.

the original calculation...
PR(A) = (1-d) + d (PR(T1)/C(T1) + ... + PR(Tn)/C(Tn))

PR= PageRank
d= dampening factor (~0.85) <--- google can change this whenever they want and some pages do not even pass pagerank.
c = number of links on the page
PR(T1)/C(T1) = PageRank of page 1 divided by the total number of links on page 1, (transferred PageRank)

In text: for any given page A the PageRank PR(A) is equal to the sum of the parsed partial PageRank given from each page pointing at it multiplied by the dampening factor plus one minus the dampening factor.
