Reduced value of some Links in Google

Since this is now appearing in some other blogs I guess I should get my act into gear...

It seems that Google, at least, is getting smarter about link values (ie how much PR to pass down a link)

NoFollow tags obviously pass none (actually there are intestesting things that can be done inside your own site with this one for PR concentration - might get back to that one later)

Links that are in a list, or the sidebar, and other "link places" including link pages and at the bottom of the page are devalued.

For a much better coverage of this issue I suggest looking where I read this first: http://seoblackhat.com/2005/08/29/devalue-link-google-algorithm/
