Top 15 Stars of the Week, October 29
Looking back over this past week, it was overwhelmingly dominated by posts on the Page Rank update. It seems everyone found some way to be touched by this in one way or the other, even if it was just to read the rantings and ravings about Google’s Page Rank update. Especially over the weekend when…
