That was a great read! I've been doing this long enough that I still complain about how much I hate GA compared to the old Urchin. I used Urchin for years and loved it. I was all excited to see what it had become as it changed to GA, and it was just... blah. It went from this super incredibly powerful tool that gave me access to all sorts of stats I needed, to this... I dunno... seemingly random assortment of things that seemed like would only excite someone that worked at Google or had AdWords on their site. That was, of course, probably the goal, so I suppose they succeed, but damn I still miss the old Urchin numbers I'd see every day. They were useful for webmasters and sys admins. GA is useful for those trying to see more ads (not that there's anything wrong with that, but that ain't me).
