 * I have some Google Analytics tracking code that I need to insert into my blog.
   Can I add it through the interface? If so, how?

 * depends on where you want it
    you can add it to the sidebar with a text widget
   admin – appearance – widgets
 * or you can add it to your theme’s `footer.php` file
    admin – appearance – editor
   click on `footer.php` on right side to edit

 * Thanks! So I _do_ have to edit the code. No problem! Good description.
