Preventing robots from crawling specific part of a page

I know you can use robots.txt to ignore entire pages or sections of your site, but is there a way to tell cralwers like the Googlebot to ignore specific sections of an HTML page?

I found this blog post that discusses one method, but it appears only to work for the Google Search Appliance, not the Googlebot.

Is there some method for at least Google for to do this?
