Google Acquires Blog Stats Company

Still not out of private beta testing, Measure Map announced Tuesday it had been acquired by Google. Measure Map's software offers detailed visitor statistics to blog owners, and Google is expected to integrate the technology into its Blogger service. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

"Today, as the Measure Map team joins Google, our mission remains the same: to build the best possible user experience so people can understand and appreciate the effect their blogs - their words and ideas - can have," said Measure Map developer Jeffrey Veen. "By opening up the app to more bloggers through Google, we hope to help even more people become passionate about their blogs."
