=head1 NAME

Blosxom Plug-in: referrer

=head1 SYNOPSIS

This plugin allows you to automatically link back to people that link to your blog.  It populates $referer::recent with the most recent referrers to your blog.  It orders the list by number of hits referred and is smart enough to combines hits from different referrers but from the same domain.  It won't detect hits from the domain on which your blog is hosted so that users don't see your obsessive reloading of your page.  It also has the ability to let you specify pretty names for the blogs that connect to you so users see links to Bob's Blog instead of bob_blog.com or whatnot.
