the throw away domain thing is king on Google. I personally have invested in large sites and not throw away domains, but some of my traffic is getting cut into by throw away domains that are all linked together with hidden links, hidden pixel links, hidden text, not so hidden text....Google just doesn't know how to detect it. You can build a mini site for a keyword niche, throw up a product and move on and do it again on another site. Link them all together, get one or two or more in the directories and you've got game. Google can't figure it out and you leverage their PR dependancy against them.
