Google Analytics Numbers have Mysteriosuly Jumped

Google Analytics‘ Average Time on Site has mysteriously jumped to much longer times. This big leap in numbers on past days is strange. Am I supposed to feel better now, believing that my readers have actually spent double time on my sites?

I remember seeing an average time on site of 2:50 minutes on a specific day, and suddenly I see 5:23. On another day, I remember seeing about 3 minutes, and now I see over 7 minutes.

This week, Google Analytics abandoned their old interface. Only the new well styled interface can be viewed. I still miss the “by hour” analysis that isn’t seen in the new interface. Maybe there’s a connection between both events.

Anyway, I haven’t seen a report on it elsewhere on the web (using Google’s search).

Did anyone else run into this strange phenomenon?

Update, May 3rd 2009: Also in my forex blog, numbers have moved strangely.
