looks interesting but it also looks like THEY track your users "for you", and i think i wouldn't want to install anything like that if so.. not sure yet though, still reading.

Uhm... don't seems different from what one do with StatCounter, NedStat, etc., isn't it?
Knowing what users do / where they go on your website is essential to make it better.

The only problem at the moment is that it seems very slow; but that it's usual for Google when a big service is launched. I suppose they need to tuneup their cluster, and see how better distribute their gazillions CPUs!

and another thing, if its google then they already know everything about everyone already, so no extra risk
i didn't see that it was an official google project.

Yeah, even Sauron is no-one compared to Google:
