Hi,

Robert Cheramy's patch implemented nofollow, but didn't enable it.  Presumably,
he was waiting for deployment of the feature in search engines ?

Anyway, the way it is now (stripping out http://) is annoying.  It was very
useful to have the list of your top referrers clickable so that you could visit
those sites and see the links, etc.  Also, most browsers automaticaly keep
track of visited URLs and draw them with a different color, so with a quick
look you could inmediately tell which or them you didn't check yet.

See attached patch to make nofollow the default, rather than stripping
http://.  Also updated URL to google blog to its current location.
