Almost one year and a whole fleet of modified camera cars crawling 22,000+ miles of British roads, Google have released 'Street View UK'

Street View already launched in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, France, Spain and Italy went online for the UK late on the 18th of March.

So far the major cities that have been covered are... London, Edinburgh, Leeds, Bradford, Cambridge, Cardiff, Belfast, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Oxford, Sheffield, Nottingham, Derby, Bristol, Coventry, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Swansea, York, Newcastle, Dundee, Southampton, Norwich and Scunthorpe, with plans to expand these over time.

UK developers now have whole new market to target themselves, allowing them to use the open-source architecture to build new applications they necessary did not have access to before

Having recently posted about PageRank I wanted to expand on it a little here, not the recent update but the confusion and myths often associated with PR. I had a few emails after the post, asking questions about PageRank most making over exaggerate claims and misleading assumptions on its impact in relation to their search engine rankings.

The truth is many Webmasters often obsess over the importance of PageRank in relation to their Page Rank. Note two words, "Page Rank" not PageRank (PR), two different things. PR is just one of the many factors that Google uses to determine a page's actual Page Rank on their search result page (SERP) for a given search query.
