If your a blogger you should ask yourself, do I want to penalize bloggers?

It seems they will always find a way to creep into blogs and emails. It’s getting harder nowadays to get rid spams. It seems they will always find a way to creep into blogs and emails.

So really, Nofollow is a big failure because it hasn't stopped spam on blogs and it certainly will put users off commenting on your blog.

Enough blogs/guestbooks/etc will be open that they figure its worth a shot anyway. The problem is that it is a quick band-aid without really looking at the problem and the roots of it.
