You Can’t Lie to Me, Google!
May 8th, 2007
I knew last Friday that something was up at Google Analytics, and I blogged about it over at Kirksey Solutions and Google Groups. I promptly emailed Google about it and this morning I got this response:
Google often tests new features and interfaces with products and services, and messages it within accounts. However, regarding Google Analytics, we are not announcing anything at this time. We apologize if there was any confusing messaging posted within your account.
Yeah, right. Somebody wrote an upgrade message, so I suspected something was afoot. Six hours later, Google announces a major upgrade to Google Analytics! Nice work, boys! There’s goes my afternoon! 
Good eye, man. Did you get access yet? How do you like it?
Yes, I do like it. There are some quirks, obviously, but I think it is an improvement. One thing I haven’t been able to do so far is put a report on my dashboard that shows conversions by source. Any idea, Michael?
Wow… I just add Google Analytics to all my sites, and I gotta say it is an amazing tool. A marketers field day. It is hard to believe that it is a free tool. Gotta love Google…
