Ya mate - they are just robotted out rather than nofollowed (typical
wordpress behavior) although I may write a plugin to change that.

The title and description are not included simply because google
doesn't actually parse the page - they just see a link to it and
assume that it must therefore exist, according to Matt's explanation
in the Erig Enge interview.

Cheers,

doc
