Links are going to become more and more expensive! "sell a "nofollow" link for $1000. pfffu, this could get a bit tricky when everybody will start adding the nofollow attribute so that they can keep their pageRank just for themselves. You then keep the cool link while keeping your pageRank in the same time.

Sounds quite cool actually, because the only people really interested in this are "search engine marketers, and all they will do is adding nofollow to all their outbound links.

And kill each others at the end!

Mmmmh, I don't really mind actually. anybody can hide links with javascript anyway, and it make it just look like a bit easier. but at the end of the day, it doesn't change anything to the fact that if you follow good onpage structure, get a few nice inbound links without having to spam blogs, you get a good ranking anyway... Unless you are stuck in this bloody sandbox.

Ok, let's move jazar.co.uk onto the new JDD! Trouble is: I cannot do any url rewriting with this bloody ensim shared hosting. Will have to find an other way!
