Google does not know where Northwest Indiana is located.

This cannot be good for people who are using the keyword “Northwest Indiana” since Google currently thinks NWI is located in South Central Indiana.

I checked my Page Rank the other day after noticing that my toolbar rank was showing zero.  Now, the PR is back to normal — 4/10.

I have been dumping some parked domains that I had been hoarding for a while that were pointing to this site.  I also dropped a dedicated IP address pointing here as well.  Both were at the suggestion of my chief financial officer — my wife — who said we didn’t need to pay for all sorts of domain names and fancy hosting services that aren’t absolutely needed.  When my wife says to do something, it’s best to follow along.  I wonder if that might have caused the ripple in my PR earlier this week?

If not, it might signal something is going on with the rankings.  Of course, it could also just have been an outage someplace in the big G’s server system.

I’d keep an eye out just to see if there is any movement, however.
