    These reports provide another layer of social insight showing which of your content attracts links, and enables you to keep track of conversations across other sites that link to your content. Most website and blog owners had no easy mechanism to do this in the past, but we see it as another important feature for holistic social media reports. When you know what your most linked content is, it is then also much easier to replicate the success and ensure that you are building relationships with those users who actively link to you the most.

    Should be handy, but as the article says, not exactly easy to find in the interface.

    It was a little difficult to find but after a lot of digging around I found the tab.

    Click on Traffic sources on the left > Now click on the Social Tab > pages

    You should now be able to see it, and clicking other options such as 'actvity streams' etc should pull up some more graphs for you :)

    Nice spot. I wonder how long G will continue to offer Webmaster Tools as a separate thing from Analytics. More and more of the Webmaster reports are appearing in Analytics now, and it seems weird to have to log in to two separate places to get an overview of your site.

    Exactly right, they'll both merge into Google Web Metrics
