Web server logs reveal patterns of activity by
web crawlers.
Some are indexing crawlers operated by search engines,
some are mysterious.
Another pattern is systematic blind searches for
vulnerable server-side executables or other
configuration problems.
The pattern you want to see is the interested
user who follows some path through the hyperlinks on
your site, taking time to read the pages.
First, let's look at the result, then the explanation
comes later.
Here are the most recent client requests,
starting most recent first.
Your request for this page won't appear there as
it isn't complete by the time this page was automatically
generated with PHP.
But if you reload the page you should see
your initial request near the top.

The first 3 octets or first 24 bits of the IP address
are used to specify the hue, with chroma at 75% and
intensity at 100%.
The resulting red, green, and blue values are scaled to
the range of 0-255 and printed as two-character hexadecimal
in an HTML style string.
Low-numbered /8 networks appear as red,
20.0.0.0/8 through 40.0.0.0/8 are orange shifting to yellow,
50.0.0.0/8 through 110.0.0.0/8 are shades of green,
the /16 networks 130.0.0.0/16 through about 180.0.0.0/16
are shades of blue,
then it's shades of purple into magenta for the /24 networks
192.0.0.0/24 and up through 223.255.255.0/24.
