when HiFi is just not an option

One of my most popular plugins is my Google Analytics for WordPress plugin, having been downloaded almost 700,000 times. This post is to let you know that this plugin is going to be getting quite a few updates in the coming month, the first of which I've just submitted to WordPress.org.

There's two reasons for the updates: the first is security, there is an XSS hole (mentioned here) in the latest version of my plugin, which is fixed by this newest update, so please, do update.

The second reason is a lot more fun: I'm going to be adding support for the new asynchronous tracking. It's going to be optional, of course, which makes it a bit of work to implement, so please give me some time. You can expect an update in about a week for version 1, but as this is a new form of tracking, I can't guarantee the new form will be entirely working, there might be bugs in there, etc.

So, thanks for using my Google Analytics plugin, and please share all your thoughts about it in the comments!
