Must admit, with all the new changes with the new look analytics, I'd over looked the social tab. But playing with it today, it's fantastic, giving a breakdown of all of your inbound social traffic, and what's converting.
If you've not used it, then go and have a look, you may have a few surprises.
Here's a good help file for it:

Also there is now also an activity stream, which only works for a few social networks such as Google+ (obviously) and things like Digg, but if Facebook starts using it, this could be pretty useful.
Search Engine Land have a good article on it:

It's a product that not many think about when they think Google e.g search, android etc. For me, it's been their best acquisition - formerly urchin - and it's pretty much invaluable for me. So much so that if they were ever to charge, like they are introducing with Google Maps, I'd definitely pay for it. Thanks, Lion
“For me, it's been their best acquisition - formerly urchin - and it's pretty much invaluable for me.

Likewise, if they started charging tomorrow, we'd have to pay it. That said I've never understood why they continued with the paid version, which was still Urchin, but just googled it, and saw this: Urchin from Google So end of an era!
In my opinion, Google analytic is easier from others. Because I used it previous five years. nashir
Google Developed social Analytic app to promote its product Google+. Most features are correlated with it. william04 |
