Just in case you hadn’t seen this already I wanted to call your attention to the updated (version 2) “Web Analysts Code of Ethics” over at the Web Analytics Association blog. John Lovett and the members of the Standards Subcommittee did a wonderful job condensing my original work down into a more easily digested document.
The committee is still looking for comments on this version so please, please head over, read the update, and let us know what you think.
Thanks to John and the WAA for making this happen for all of us!
