Google downs PR on all DCs

Disturbing news indeed as webmasters over at DigitalPoint gets a bit concerned in this thread.

All the PR checker tools are reporting N/A for their sites, enough to give any webmaster cause for concern. Personally, I think its just a temporary thing though and for those that are worried about their site, our trusty old PageRank Verification Tool is still working. So go over and get your dose of Google’s green juice if you need.

If Google is thinking of killing showing of External PageRank though, what would that mean?

Hundreds, no Thousands …. millions? .. or directory owners will turn grey overnight. SEOs will be drowned in calls from their clients.Text Link Ads wont know what to base their prices on anymore… and most devastating of all … our trusty PR verification tool would be useless!!!!!

Thats bad …
