Privacy Policy for Blogger

There are probably a many gadgets that could be used to add a Privacy Policy for Blogger (or any other piece of text that applies to the whole site.

Here's one:
Check out the Privacy Policy link at the foot of the page - Click it.

And that's it. - It even adds a _trackPageView for the Privacy Policy so you can tell how many have checked it out to if it works.

Here's the code below - Add it as an HTML/Javascript widget where you want it on the page.

What do you think?
