I rely more on backlinks but it may force others to not rely on PR. Very interesting move if they decide to do this. I rely more on backlinks but it may force others to not rely on PR.

One of my site got PR2 just a month after its' launch when it had only 5 linkbacks, and a very general and limited content. If PR means the importance of that page to google, i'm not sure what are the bases for that importance. I, however, rely much on Google backlinks rather than PR, but do consider PR as well. I'm not sure what ultimate effect will be there for the removal of PR bar, probably many will start considering other factors instead of just PR.

A good content, links from quality and trusted sites are what should matter. It's true that PR from Google toolbar shows me 2-3 months old data. I could recheck the PR of a site if we doubt the button, but most of the time I trust it. The data do not change very fast - not in my sites case at least. But in the same time, PR tells me how important a page is for Google. So if I do not count PR... how I will realize what is important for Google?
