Google Analytics, Silverlight, and .NET
Like many site analytics applications, Google Analytics will track how many site users have Java, Flash, and other web technologies installed on their system (and which version). Notably absent from the list are the .NET Framework and Silverlight. I like Google Analytics, but this information is very important for me.
Nikhil Kothari has created a workaround with a snippet of Javascript code that will detect Silverlight and set Analytics variables.
Workarounds – even elegant ones like this one – often end up being maintenance problems. The possibility of something creating an unexpected Javascript error on every page of our website is not acceptable.
Maybe it’s time to check out Microsoft adCenter Analytics
