Jason Hoffman on Google Analytics

Jason Hoffman:

[…] I can see it doing to Mint what Google Calendar did to Kiko.

Mint certainly looks nicer, that’s for sure. And given Google’s design record, that’s likely to remain true. But Google Analytics’s web pages load much faster than Mint’s (much faster for me at least), Google stores your stats for you (whereas Mint requires you to have and configure a MySQL database), and, most obviously, Google Analytics is free.
