There was a short time that the links google showed with link: all had a PR of 4 or over, which is no longer the case. PageRank is considered worthless by some, and having some additional value by others. I have a PR of 7 ( <a class="user" href="http://johnbokma.com/">http://johnbokma.com/</a> ) and when I look at how well positioned my new pages become a few days after I have written them I think that PR does still have some weight.
How does stuff like this make front page. There are tons of forums out there that talk about this. There is nothing profound in this article. I have written many articles about this stuff along with other diggers but did not feel I needed to spam digg with it. Quit digging spam and old news people. The front page should be for new ground breaking things not old news that most people already know or can find quickly with a few searches or on many many forums and blogs.
Not really, quality is better than quantity. I rather have 20-30 good quality links then 3,000 s**tty ones.The biggest player in good SEO is: content. If you have good and original content, Google loves you. Moreover, your visitors love you, and hence you don't have beg or trade for links, you just get them. I was able to move in roughly a year from 3,000 visitors a day to close to 10,000 visitors a day by just writing content :-)

This guide really is of very poor quality. Sad to see it making the front page and getting so much attention. I fear it will spread significant misinformation.BTW - The SEOmoz Beginner's Guide did have a Digg entry when it came out - <a class="user" href="http://digg.com/technology/Beginner_s_guide_to_SEO">http://digg.com/technology/Beginner_s_guide_to_SEO</a>
