Default Google backlink update

I'm seeing some backlink updates on a few of the google data centers, it looks like this activity started on Sunday. Despite picking up a lot of new backlinks my site has seemed to drop slightly in the SERPS at those datacenters.

Is anybody else seeing changes to their backlink counts or SERPS?

Yes, backlinks have been updated. Don't stress over the serps though. If you're lucky, it's just some temporary flux that will shift back in your favor soon.

I do indeed see an update in my backlinks. Google still has not picked them all up, but there are definitely more now.

Since they are updating backlinks will a page rank update follow?

If PR follows the same "rules" as it has recently then one can expect it about every quarter or 3 months. IF that remains true, then we are about due for another PR update. However, I've noticed that PR updates are a little variable in nature...small ones that affect new sites (perhaps to get them on the PR map) and then the big ones that seem to affect all sites. It's a theory I'm working on

Nonetheless, I think if it follows past behavior we should see PR change soon (less than 30 days).
