Also good backlinks come from blog comments.

And blog comments usually have no-follow on them.

Yes, but you can find that very easy and, i guess, the link value is better than those coming from directories. And reading/commenting blogs may be fun too.

Most have no-follow, thus the link value is none.

Directories are good if they are well moderated.
