Nofollow Removed From This Plain Old Website

I have been conducting a poll on this site regarding the use, or should I say, the removal of the nofollow attribute from the comment area on this website. And so here are the results so far:

  • 40% - YES! Remove the nofollow!
  • 20% - NO! Keep the nofollow!
  • 40% - What is nofollow?

So far in this poll, only 20% of voters want the nofollow to remain (probably Google employees…maybe Matt has been here :) ). And the rest of the ballets are tied between, “YES remove it!”, and, “What is it?” So I’ll let the poll continue for a while more, but for those 40% of voters who need a refresher as to what nofollow is, please read this post titled, “Nofollow Nolonger“.
