Added Google Analytics

More evidence of my lack of grokking MovableType:
This week Gerrit was talking about Google Analytics and it looked interesting. I pay very little attention to who accesses my blog or when, but it seemed like it’d be interesting to find out. So I did some googling for movabletype and googleanalytics.
I didn’t find much useful, especially in a MT4 context. But it’s easy right…just past the magic script includer at the end of your pages? Except I don’t quite comprehend how/when/why MT makes my pages. So I start putting it at the end of a bunch of templates and it’s not showing up when I view page source in various pages. After a fair amount of trial and error with the templates there was a moment of dawning comprehension. I think I now understand what the different index templates are for and they’re apparently just made up of widgets.
And there’s a Footer widget! So: to use MovableType4 with Google Analytics the easiest way is to just paste the magic script includer code that Google give you into your Footer widget just before the </body> tag. Quite obvious in hindsight, but I guess I’m a little surprised that googling didn’t find a simple statement like that.
