Fnordmetric has everything it takes to create a cohort widget. It would be an awesome feature to have :)

Mh, can you expand on that? Do you mean a "returning visitors" widget or something like Google Analytics "users online right now"? :)

These two blog posts can give some better idea on what I'm talking about:

http://blog.intercom.io/retention-cohorts-and-visualisations/ http://www.ashmaurya.com/2010/07/3-rules-to-actionable-metrics/

The graph I'm suggesting is like the one offered by Mixpanel and Kissmestrics.

I can comment further is necessary :)

@panaggio I think it would be extremly hard to implement cohorts as described in pasted by you articles in fnordmetric.

EDIT: When I think about it now, maybe it would be not that hard... After all, only one entry per month and user has to be stored to check if user was active in given month.

It looks like a great feature.
