Whoever used Google Analytics up to 2 weeks ago, knows it mostly sucked big time.
I moved to Analytics from StatCounter right after Google bought Urchin.
I did it because I liked Google, but the service just sucked. The interesting information was buried deep under loads of meaningless statistics. You had to use tutorials on the web that tell you where to find the list of sites referring to your site.

I’ve been thinking of moving back to StatCounter, really, until just a few days ago I read somewhere that there’s a new version of Analytics. Not just a new version, an entire redesign, meaning that I wasn’t the only one suffering from the older one.

This new version is just what I needed, and looks very inspired from Google Finance.
The info you’re looking for is right there, important things are big, advanced info is small.

God bless whoever made the decision to move forward.
