All of my blogs except my personal blog have dropped one point, but that's no surprise since I have not posted on any of them for 6-10 weeks.

Mine dropped from 5 to 2. Amazing!
It was strange because it went straight to PR 5, 4 months after its creation date 30-06-2008. PR 2 after six months? fair enough.

Usually when Google does a page rank update we have many member posting to the forum about it. This time it's suspiciously quiet and I'm wondering why that is. How did your blog(s) fare?

I don't have a google toobar but I did check and the "should be famous" blog dropped to a 3 as it is not posted in very often at all. I just don't have the time - once a month or every two months at one point is all I can manage. My other blogs really never change.
I don't see page ranking as being very significant though I read some great blogs with no page rank.-
Page rank matters depending on what you do with your blog. For example the rate of paid posting in one of my blogs my minor blogs which went from pr 1 to pr 4 will go from $5 or $6 to paid post to around $15 to $20 per post. I have basically taken this blog into the thousand dollar a month range. This is a MU blog with subdirectories rather than subdomains and I am already reaping the benefits of its 36 niche blogs on TLA and linkworth as well.
