For quite some time, I wanted to write what Google Analytics could improve to make it more useful. Google beat me to it. They just acquired Measure Map for an undisclosed price.

We just started using MeasureMap and have added it to this blog after Jared Spool recommended it in a comment.

How do you build a system that can deliver and update content to 100,000 people simultaneously? Via Ajaxian.com I saw this article from MacRumors on what traffic they got when Steve Jobs delivered his keynote on MacWorld a few days ago.
Also in this post: Ajaxinfo (the guys behind AJAX usability metrics), AJAX ROI faceoff, where a traditional webapp is compared to an AJAX webapp. For the visually oriented, there is a video comparing the two applications.

I like Wordpress Dashboard. The name suggests that it’s an overview of whats relevant to your blog. What’s happening. What’s popular. Who comments. What important updates are available. The Dashboard should work like in a car. The most important and relevant information should be visible at a glance. Lets have a brief look at the dashboard.
I suggest you only take a brief look to judge for your self whether you think the main objectives of the Dashboard page are met.
Click on the screenshot above for and look for 5 seconds only. Then ask yourself what you could remember from the page. Yup you just tried a 5 second usability test.

We use Google Analytics as a stat tool on justaddwater.dk, and we’re overall satisfied with it. Unfortunately, one crucial feature is hidden and very hard to find. Here is how you find referring URLs and not only the referring websites.

We just signed up for testing the new Google Analytics statistics software. It gives us an idea of who is browsing our website. On the humorous side, the signup process is missing something. It seems that the license agreement is not found. Hilarious. Of course I accepted (but I’m still wondering what that means). We’re […]
