I disagree. Google's Webmaster Tools are not really that complex, and while the UI could use some polishing here and there, it works just fine. AdWords has way more features, of course. However, it's still pretty usable in my opin

What's up with the all caps "FROM" and "TO"? SQL habit?

Honestly: just start (with low weights). That's what I did, anyway. Work your way up and focus on proper form.

You are correct. Guess I read too much into "verification".

Yes, I do find the title to be misleading. Pure checksum verification (used for some account number plausibility checks) can actually be done in a couple of lines of code. This is something different entirely. Please don't get me wrong

Kind of misleading: this works with a few lines of code _if_ you use/include their libary. Nice nonetheless.

Agreed. This is the problem with pretty much all "health trackers": how actionable are the data and visualization? Yes, you need to measure stuff to improve it, but still, a step counter is like a website hit counter and has littl

I agree completely. GA has become very, very capable in the last five years or so. Combined with their current APIs, you can do pretty much anything you want.

Piwik relies on client-side JavaScript for tracking, not log analysis.

Free alternatives? Not really. Paid? Yes, SiteCatalyst and Webtrekk come to mind. People seem to ignore that the tracking JavaScript is not what you're paying for. It's the backend + servers.

> It took us only a few weeks to write our home-brew analytics package. Unfortunately, there's no way to replicate what Google Analytics currently offers (for free!) within a couple of weeks (or even months). Not with big data sets.

I don't think one more week would have made that much of a difference (rather than, say, a couple of months). Seems like they came up with a solid solution anyway.

Cool insight, thanks for that. How long (on average) does a delivery take once you pickup the processed order from Starbucks? Have you guys measured any significant differences in temperature?

There are actually no direct links to Amazon (or other similar sites) in his blog posts. Parent meant other commentators in this thread.

Personally, I think the pricing is way too high for what you're providing. Also, to people who think that this very JS might get blocked by ad blockers: all of the tracking and reporting could be done (server-side) with Google Analytic

I can't help but think that this was at least in part created to help train Google's image recognition software (as in, confirm that the images returned are correct).

Thanks for elaborating. What do you mean by them "fixing their product"? Make it self-hosted/server-side?
