Regarding "nofollow" on internal links: Does it hurt? Does it help? I read different comments from Matt on this matter over time. What's the latest?

Super Matt. Came to this video with that question in mind.

Thanks. I was really enlightened. Nice one from Google.

Sorry, this time I disagree.
It's no good to waste GoogleBots' time having 'em crawl to pages of low public interest just to encounter a noindex robots meta tag. Only high quality content should make it's way into the index, and the less time the Googlebots waste, they more they can spend on finding it.
I use lots of internal nofollow links on may major site and it is prooved this is okay.
Regards, Thomas

So... does PR evaporate or spreads to dofollow links? I'm just confused now.

Come on, youtube is a part of the big money machine google and they use nofollow on internal links. So did the guys from youtube not know how google works or did they know it better then all other webmasters?

I want to redub Matt's videos based solely on his hand gestures. Try it out for yourself: put the video on mute and let your imagination go wild! I think this one is about waterwheels in a Rube Goldberg machine.
