    Do outbound links count for anything?
    I seem to remember that there is some value if the links are related.
    If so is there a limit and should they be nofollow or does that make no difference?
    What are the best guidelines for this?

    Yup, as far as I am aware, quality and related outbound links are good for your site.

    Outbound links is also good for visitors but too much of it can hurt the site.

    I heard that you should have not more than a hundred outbound link per week so that you won't be considered as a spammer by the search engine.

    If the links are authority links, you can provide outbound links related to the contents of your web site

    Outbound links can give you a direct traffic though you have to use it wisely.

    Any links are useful. It doesn't matter unless you start faking them.
