The (cool) things I find via my recent referrer reports

I've noticed other bloggers commenting on the links that they discovered via their referer logs. Today, I discovered Ed Hill at the University of Iowa via my own referer report. He's got a JSP tag library that does some really useful formatting for displaying table data. Check it out. Not sure what it means when you find something this way. If I seek, I go to google. If somebody was referred to me, what are the chances that I'm interested in the referer? My experience has been that it's rare that I see something I've seen before via referers and it's often directly related to a subject that I follow closely. The most useful example of this that I've seen is disechanted.com's referer RSS feed. And if you think I've got referer spelled wrong, think again.
