I just dont understand nofollow as Google looks at it. Why have a link on your website only to nofollow it?
Oh boy it is getting deeper.

Links to shopping carts sitewide strictly for the benefit of the visitor once they're on the site. There's absolutely no reason to pass any value by those links. NoFollow makes perfect sense whereas removing the links does not.
We regulate page rank all the time through the use of our navigation. NoFollow allows us to create links to benefit the visitor without having to dilute what we created in the first place.
Matt confirms what I have believed all along. Namely, that there's absolutely nothing wrong with using "NoFollow" on internal links AND that those links are ignored leaving more
PR to be passed on be the remaining links.
