Google Analytics adds more tracking features
Google has quietly announced some new features for Analytics, its web tracking tool. They seem small, but these additional tracking features will provide much greater insight into what is going on your website since you can't always peer over visitors' shoulders to watch.The updates include:
- Site Search Tracking - Users will now be able to tell exactly what keywords visitors searched for on your site, and where these searches end up.
- Event Tracking - Currently in a limited beta test, these website reports will show how users interact with various multimedia aspects on your site, including flash and Ajax without messing with pageview metrics.
- Outbound link Tracking - Also in a limited beta test rolling out in the next few weeks, reports will show what links website visitors click on that direct them to an outside site.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

But will it be as good as Microsoft's Gatineau when it comes out?
Check out these Microsoft Gatineau videos : http://www.liesdamnedlies.com/2007/10/the-skinny-on-g.html
Gatineau is Microsoft's site analytics tool, and it's suppose to be the best thing ever.

Just the type of comment I would expect from a Microsoft fan-boy. Looking over your past comments it's easy to see you are in lust with Microsoft, or perhaps you work for them. Every comment you ever made, except the one about your own UPS, has mentioned Microsoft as a better solution or a better company.
Not saying there is anything wrong with your comment, just that it was what I expected.

@Michael:
So because I at least have some like towards Microsoft, immediately implies that I work for them? So if you make good comments about Apple, you're automatically assumed to work for them (which I wouldn't be surprised)?
Or just any other company. If you like a company, say something good about them, that means you must work for them? Sorry, but that's not right.
It's called expressing an opinion. I'm entitled to it thank you.
And I just merely say those things, to show that Microsoft is not as bad as you think.
It's sort of like showing an alternative to IE. You can get Firefox, Opera, Safari, etc. People suggest those, and I'm quite all right with that.
So I merely suggest alternatives, or in some cases, something that really is better. Just getting the word out is all.
