www.domain.com vs. just domain.com on Google - GoFuckYourself.com

In Google Analytics, you can ask the engine to disambiguate and always serve results to your site as either www.domain.com or just domain.com.

I didn't used to forced links to go to one or the other and I think most links in to my sites are probably www.domain.com.

Is there any disadvantage or advantage to using that tool to tell Google to always go to the www version?

I noticed that. Does it make a difference if I tell Google Analytics to regard it as all links with the www or all without?

It's about PR i think,looks them different,so better put www. always

Yes. If you try to submit both ways, google will send you to the sandbox. Been there, done it. Be careful.
