Podcast: Interview with Google’s Brett Crosby

Google has just released a new version of it's Google Analytic software. This new version of Google Analytics includes a brand new interface, email reporting, customizable dashboards, improved map displays, and plain language descriptions to make important information more accessible.

I was also able to get an interview with Google Analytics' Senior Manager, Brett Crosby to discuss the new release in more detail.  Listen to it here:

Here are the questions I asked Brett:

• Can you first give us some background on what created the need for the new version and how long your team has been working on it?
• Tell us about the redesigned interface and what it will do in terms of user interaction.
• Can you tell us more about the email reporting and customizable dashboards?
• What exactly are the plain language descriptions?
• How long do you think it will take to roll out the new version to all of the current users?
