I’m incredibly disappointed about Measure Map’s abandonment, having been checking in on it for over half a year now. Especially considering that the stats scene is still full of examples with either bad UIs, bad feature sets, or a hefty price tag. Jeeze, Google…

Companies worth the kind of money that Google is worth can afford to shell out a few million dollars (~$3M so I’ve heard) to bring someone as brilliant and talented as Jeffrey Veen to the team. I wouldn’t be surprised if MeasureMap was never finished and never saw the light of day, and they only bought it so that they could bring Veen in to work with other superstars like Doug Bowman on giving their applications a polished once-over.

Last I heard the team had been merged with the Google Analytics team. They have been collaborating ever since on a totally new stats application that merges the comprehensiveness of GA with the UI of MM.

I sincerely hope they release it – I helped build MeasureMap (I wasn’t part of the Google buyout), and am lucky enough to still use it every day, and quite seriously – nothing compares. It’s truly a remarkable product, and a credit to everyone who built it.

I hope they do something. I’m seriously underwhelmed with FeedBurner’s StandardStats offering.
