Thanks to my blog's page refferer tracker, I'm able to track how people across the world come upon SL and NWN via Google searches, presumably for the very first time. Notes from that crazy-ass trajectory are documented here.
(All posts are Google searches where SL/NWN is in the top 10 search results.)

From just today:
Someone from Finland Googles "shooting killing clips"... and we are there. Someone Googles "criticism Maslow's hierarchy"... and we are there. Someone Googles "homeland vs. ghetto"... and we are there. Someone Googles "gay sim date games"... and yes, we are there. Someone Googles "where two or more are gathered, i am there", a line spoken by Christ in the New Testament... and we are also there. _____________________

You should have been tracking referrals when the Wells Fargo story went out recently. It was crackin' interesting.

Baba, do you ponder someday a peep will suck for "YOU SUCK" and end up at an entry of NWN with you in it?

Thank God that the multitude of people searching for the number of offspring spawned by the mighty clownfish will finally be directed to an appropriate resource to answer this question! Why, if I had a dime for every time I thought, "Gee, I wonder how many offspring clown fish have?"...
... Only to days, maybe weeks later think, "OH! Duh, I should check the New World Notes! That will tell me not only how many babies clown fish have, but ALSO answer some very critical inquiries I have about old, big, gay, armless midgets" Seriously tho, very interesting to see the diverse range of keywords that point to SL and NWN. _____________________

Heh. I wonder how many college students writing essays for their psychology classes frantically Googled "Malsow's hierarchy"... and ended up with Jenna Fairplay talking about booty.

OK, this is just crazy. Hank Williams' most well-known song is also one of the most famed tunes of the 20th century. But now if you Google "your cheating heart"...

I don't know if it's because of SLers checking up on Hamlet, but my search for "your cheating heart" puts NWN at #1...
