Google Analytics Starter Guide

Google just released a starter guide to walk through users on the setup, analysis and reports for the Google Analytics.

The guide's purpose is to walk new users through the basics of having an Analytics account, and it also picks out must-know definitions like goals and funnels. It also has a diagram of the reporting interface so first time users can follow along and learn about the various reports and features. Finally, the guide also provides practical set-up and implementation instructions in the 'Installing Analytics' section, as well as tips on how to set up your reports and interpret the data once you start receiving it.

If the Getting Started Guide is too basic and you're ready to get started on more advanced code customizations or look through videos on tips and tricks, you can browse through the 'Other resources' section at the end of the guide.

Customize your Gmail

Gmail has some under development features that you can add to your Gmail account. They are hidden under the Labs tab in Settings:

Mark as Read Button:
Tired of spending all that effort to click on the more actions menu every time you want to mark messages as read without reading them? Now just enable this lab and that is just a button click away!

Multiple Inboxes:
Add extra lists of emails in your inbox to see even more important email at once. The new lists of threads can be labels, your starred messages, drafts or any search you want, configurable under Settings.

How to use Multiple Inboxes?

If you forward all your work or school email to Gmail, you can use Multiple Inboxes to see your two accounts separately within the same browser window. Here's how:
1. Turn on Multiple Inboxes from the Labs tab under Settings.
2. Set up a filter to auto-archive all mail sent to your work or school address.
3. Customize one of your multiple inboxes to show mail sent to your other address. To do this, go to the Multiple Inboxes tab under Settings and set up one of the panes to search for mail sent to your other address.

The State of Twitter in Canada

Twitter Blog: For Whom The Bell Texts
Today Twitter has fully activated the two-way SMS service for Canadian Twitter-ers who are also customers of Bell Mobility. If you're a Bell Mobility customer, you can update Twitter via SMS and receive updates from Twitter via SMS. There are no limits and no added fees (beyond your normal texting plan). If you haven't already, you can activate your phone to Twitter over SMS.

Rogers to follow suit?

Update: Feb 24, 2009
CBCNews.ca is reporting that Bell is charging users 15 cents for each Twitter message they send or receive, even if they have an unlimited text messaging plan.

This contradicts Twitter's own announcement on Friday which said:

There are no limits and no added fees (beyond your normal texting plan).

Update: Mar 1, 2009
Okay, Twitter and Bell will end this saga once and for all. No charges!
