Google Pagerank Changes
What does everyone think about Google's changes to it's PageRank formula, hurting those websites that have too much SEO? Anything to look out for?

firepages will become famous soon enough
...didn't know they had, but if they did then +1 from me

Page rank should be (IMO) a reflection of the usefulness and relevance of the website, not how much they paid to a SEO.
If peeps want to pay for getting on the front page of Google then thats what Google ads are for (again IMO)

There seems no change in the PR algorithms but they introduced new methods under the code name Panda and Penguin to fight with web spam.

The only change I am aware of that they have ever made to the PR algorithm is to reduce its importance in the rest of their calculation.

It was already the least important of over 200 factors prior to Panda so it is unlikely that its significance has changed much since.
