I just recently learned about how outbound links can affect the total PR
of a site.

I realised that most of my pages had several outbound links (several of
them had more outbound than inbound), and some of
them are even small webdirectories on different topics built by me.

Now I have inserted the rel="nofollow" on most outbund links, except for
the ones I for some reason consider "friends"

1. Would you consider this an unethical behaviour of me?

2. Is the use of rel="nofollow" sometimes penalised by search engines?

I don't imagine Teoma will be impressed. If you link to a whole lot of
sites that you think will be of value, you get kudos for being a hub
site.
