After today’s announcement from the Google Analytics team, the critics have a lot less to carp about. Clearly, Google has listened to its audience and, in turn, has unveiled some impressive new features that should elicit cheers from even the “power users”.

A few days ago, I wrote about a recent report on enterprise web analytics. The report discussed sentiments and statistics on enterprise web analytics tools and practices.
