Per the Specification for Nofollow @ http://microformats.org/wiki/rel-nofollow: "RelNoFollow is an elemental microformat, one of several microformat open standards. By adding rel="nofollow" to a hyperlink, a page indicates that the destination of that hyperlink SHOULD NOT be afforded any additional weight or ranking by user agents which perform link analysis upon web pages (e.g. search engines). Typical use cases include links created by 3rd party commenters on blogs, or links the author wishes to point to, but avoid endorsing." Nofollow is a misnomer. The SEs can and will actually follow the link to the other side. Yahoo Slurp follows the links and is documented on their Search site. Google says they do not follow the link, but I do not really believe that. The Google Answer you referenced is all wrong.

I happen to have only one link to one of my blogs and Google indexed the blog, although that one link was nofollow. I also think that a nofollow link helps.
