Awesome stuff! I've been using segment.io for about a week on a side project and can say for sure it's the easiest way to add plugins to your site
Looks cool, though what's the difference between this and a normal tag management system? Just curious.
It definitely competes with a tag management system. We're much more focused on analytics though, and about not just providing tag management, but also a clean API that doesn't just apply to the browser. We'll be building out more API goodness soon too, so stay tuned!
Statsd support would be awesome
Will the hosted system be a paid service? Is there a pricing table anywhere?
The client-side portion of the hosted service will always be free. Server-side and mobile will be paid monthly, we haven't solidified the pricing quite yet though!
