Google Analytics… WTF?

I use Google Analytics to track stuff for this blog and we also have an analytics account for Fuzz. Today I figured I’d login to Fuzz’s account and grant my personal account access to Fuzz’s stats. I figured this would be way better than logging in and out a bunch of times each day… sounds good, right?

So, logged in to analytics and added my personal email in Fuzz’s account dashboard then logged in with my personal info. assuming I’d see both sites listed and I’d have the ability to flip/flop between the two at will. Wrong! The entry for phatduckk.com disappeared and all I saw listed was the info for Fuzz. Did my stats all just go away? WTF!!??!! I logged back in to the Fuzz account, removed my personal email from Fuzz’s account section, logged in to the phatduckk account and my site’s stats came back.

Pretty disappointing huh? Isn’t it a fair assumption that this should have worked? Why the fuck do they let you grant access to a separate Google account if its gonna screw up that accounts original access? Do I really have to have multiple Google accounts?
