In Google Analytics, I would have to:
* click on "Websites" (top left of http://gget.it/5e8tyn6g/2.jpg http://gget.it/5e8tyn6g/2.jpg)
* choose the right website in the list (http://gget.it/8jptjvso/3.jpg http://gget.it/8jptjvso/3.jpg)
* wait that the page reloads
This, ten times in a row, which is annoying (once per website I manage).
Conclusion: more time spent on clicking twenty times on UI elements than actually looking at the charts.
I like to go super fast, now I open http://mywebsite.com/tinyanalytics/ http://mywebsite.com/tinyanalytics/, and I have an immediate overview of all the websites in 10 seconds.

- josephernest 10y agoGood idea indeed! Haven't thought about it. Anyway learning how GA API works would have probably taken me more time than I actually used to write TinyAnalytics ;) If you have time to share on Github a ready-to-use GA API -> HTML renderer (just the numbers would be enough, I'll be able to do the chart rendering), it would be awesome, I'll probably use it too!
