It shows the packages that are not in your system, but are usually found in similar systems. Think amazon-like suggestions, computed with popcon data and broken down by tag. The primary problem it is trying to solve is to give me an opportunity to play with what could be done cross-referencing popcon and debtags information. As a side effect, it could be very effective in bringing to your attention packages that you might have been missing. For example, now I know of the fantastic "gmt" package, very useful for my work: it was the first suggestion in the page, but I hadn't heard of it before.
