Am I the only one what found the title of this post misleading? It's a plugin to make any dom element stick in the viewport ... the title made me think that it's a plugin that collects user behaviour?

Yes! That's exactly what I thought it was. Do you know of any script that does that?

Maybe there are other tools that I don't know of though.

Actually I believe it is position: fixed.
"position: sticky is a new way to position elements and is conceptually similar to position: fixed. The difference is that an element with position: sticky behaves like position: relative within its parent, until a given offset threshold is met in the viewport."

Yea well it can be done with Google analytics but requires some real in-depth knowledge and lots of setting things up. Clicktale ( http://www.clicktale.com/ ) is another one but I don't have any experience with it. Maybe there are other tools that I don't know of though.
