The rumors were true - Google has snapped up MeasureMap, the excellent and beautifully designed blog analytics tool. What's interesting here is that Measuremap was barely outta the gate - is this the first Web 2.0 service to be bought up while still in private beta? (Probably not - I just can't think of any right now). Still, an interesting acquisition - I'd love to see this bolted on to Blogger or becoming part of Google Analytics.
