[thelist] PageRank changes for different versions of same URL

[dn at dittodesign.co.uk]

I've had this. Reason was I signed off across the web on forums with my
url minus the www. So I had more backlinks for that url. I had two seperate
listings in search results for the same site.

It's settled down now. Both url's have the same pr and only the www is
listed.
