Default Stumble Upon Tracks You With Google Analytics

Remember in Ed's pre-season video how he said to set up your Stumble account and get into the habit of stumbling regularly and voting for a page whenever you land on a page you like? And that Stumbling regularly ads "deposits" to your Stumble account which you make a "withdrawal" from when you Stumble your own pages? Well that's advice to really listen to.

When you create an account with StumbleUpon, your username becomes the subdomain name (url) of your profile. Check it out next time you log in. Stumble is tracking over 11,000 subdomains in Google Analytics, so this likely means they're getting very detailed statistics on your Stumbling habits. This means they can see if you Stumble regularly, or if you just come in once in awhile to Stumble pages on a specific domain. So, don't be a Stumble spammer; Stumble regularly amd Stuble broad.

Google owns StumbleUpon I believe which is probably why they use their own analytics
