The Dirac measure appears in Chapter 1, and the circle measure appears in Chapter 2, but I agree that the other measures would be great examples to add too.
Sorry must have missed those! Haven't had time to read fully in-depth, so mostly just skimming.
I can take on adding the Gaussian/Hausdorff/Haar measure for compact matrix groups in R^n in the near future (but a bit busy now so probably won't be until the weekend/sometime next week)
That would be great, thanks!
Also, writing this made me realize that the definition I gave of spherical measure doesn't actually work, so I'll fix that later today. It might be a good motivating example for Hausdorff measure (and Haar measure in case d = 1).

Lebesgue measure is great and of course the standard, but I think it does make sense to give more examples of measures early on to encourage the reader to think about more than just what they already have immediate intuition for, and also to motivate why people should care about measure theory.
In particular I'm thinking of:
These might also deserve to get put into the next chapter "More on Measures"
