Social Bookmarking & Social Networking are different beasts I thought. Digg is bookmarking - I don't see any evidence of NOFOLLOW there. MySpace on the other hand, is networking. They've incorporated a redirect system that seems to achieve the same result as the NOFOLLOW attribute. I was a bit cheesed off to see my crappy MySpace page effectively "remove" the couple of backlinks it had, but hey ho.
On a side note, my myspace page comes up as No2 and sometimes No1 on Google for the keyphrase "internet idiocy". Just in case anyone wants to see an example of anchor text doing it's job.
