Google's Labor Day Gift

I guess Google did finally get to the decision on giving the PR update this "Labor Day". It served as a gift to all the webmasters today as Google (i think) finally decided to finalize the PR update that everybody has been waiting for to happen. After a few days of the Google PR Dance, this has to be final now as i have seen lots of forums announcing about the latest update that is out early this morning..

Almost every forum has been announcing about the big news and the big wait is now over. For what most thought to happen on the 1st to 2nd week of April happened on the exact date of the "Labor Day". Everybody seems to be happy this day and it was really a special gift for a special occasion where the world rejoices not only because of the worldwide celebration of May1, but also because of the finalization of the Google PR and the green bar.

At long last, the wait is over and out of the suspense that we have been inkling to ease the boredom and the continuous link building for the meantime. Let us give ourselves some little rest out of the SEO world that we live in and take that plunge to ease out the pressures of the heat.

I am happy on this update because out of the 7 sites that i have 3 of them have PR before and now on the latest update, i have 6 with PR and this has to be the start of everything good that will happen on the next update wait. Thank you Google!!!
