Google Analytics : Wheres the site overlay?
While at Pubcon 10 last week I signed up for the free version of Urchin now known as Google Analytics for one of my sites. Of course the service was overrun with new signups since its free (my regards ClickTracks) and the data took FOREVER to aggregate. Well yesterday after anxiously waiting like a kid on Christmas Eve my data finally began to trickle in.
I’ve owned licensing for Urchin log file analyzer on several of my dedicated boxes for years now but never could figure out how to properly configure it. Had I known how beautiful this reporting is I would have taken the time to figure it out. You’ve done a fine job Brett Crosby and crew. But the one thing I was really excited to see was the site overlay feature and for whatever reason it doesn’t exist on my reports. Is this a temporary scale back of features en lieu of the tidal wave of data Google has received? Anyone else experiencing this?

Note the site overlay option under Navigational Analysis
Here is what I see in my report:
