I've noticed a few sites have different PRs when you add/remove the "www." For example-

http://www.usatoday.com/ PR = 8

http://usatoday.com/ PR = 7

Therefore, Google treats those urls as different pages? Could USA Today benefit from forwarding all links to "www"?

PBS.org (http://pbs.org/) forwards all urls to "www", should we do the same?

I've noticed that.

If you don't put the www. for my site, it returns with a PR of 0, but if you do put it, a PR of 4 comes up.

It's strange.

http://games2go.co.uk link to www.games2go.co.uk, and has a PR of exactly the same.
