    No follow link means that google not consider no follow link , as google not crawl on that pages , as they are not cached and indexed in the google...

    No follow links not crawled by the crawler... Then there is no benefit in cached and boost the Keyword ranking. It can give plus in traffic point.

    Nofollow links are still crawled, but they do not pass page rank (PR) so do not help with your google search engine ranking. But they still help with other search engines.

    you learn something everyday... I had assumed it was for all search engines - but obviously it's specific to each or the one that does not follow, so at least you might still get crawled by other bots...

    ^^^ Thats true.

    But more than that did you know that the dofollow link effected by the nofollow? The "strength" of every outgoing link is calculated some thing like that:
    some static factor * (page power/(total links including no follows))

    In my point of view nofollow can only increase your Ranking not helpful in enhancing Page rank
