Yesterday, we learned that Yahoo will be acquiring analytics package IndexTools.
Forum members overall think it's an interesting move. While some gripe about past customer service issues with the analytics company, others have had better experience. They hope that the acquisition will improve things for everyone.
Why now? Yahoo is going to continue to improve their offerings. You can't really blame them. Maybe IndexTools will be available for free in the future. ;)
Forum discussion continues at WebmasterWorld and DigitalPoint Forums.
