I have almost no links with that as the text but I'm often on the second page, I think do to various comments I leave (all nofollowed) on blogs that link here.

Wikipedia started using nofollow a while back, and according to Danny Sullivan (Search Engine Land), Google is saying that no SEO weight will be given to Knol (which also uses the no follow on links) Technically, there is no SEO play.
