Granted, a bit oriented toward a beginner audience, but an entertaining read nonetheless and and excellent resource for anyone encountering these acronyms for the first time. Very nice article Wayne.

I understand you know your way around Wordpress, so I hope you are OK with me shooting a few questions at you... I just had a look at the Wordpress codex and if I read it right, all outgoing links since WP version 1.5 are automatically tagged with rel nofollow. And I <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nofollow-case-by-case/" rel="nofollow">found a plug-in to change that on a case by case basis</a>. I tried to find out whether this automatic no-follow applies to the blogroll. Do you know whether it does? And if rel nofollow does apply to the blogroll, is it even possible to override it? And what happens if I use rel nofollow in a link in inline text if the overriding code is nofollow anyway? Does the redundancy cause a conflict? Great article.
