This would work globally, but I prefer to disable it only for specific users (in this case, just me). In other words, Google Analytics should not be keeping track of my activities on the site, but it should be tracking everyone else.

Would you ever want to track the administrators visits? Still, your anonymous visits will be counted - can't preclude that.

It might be good if there were an option to enable/disable tracking of admin activity; once the site reaches critical mass, admins will likely (hopefully) spend just as much time participating in the community as they do moderating; at that point it might actually be more useful to include admin activity in GA.

Ok, will do the the next version. It's quite simple actually.
