I know that one of the good things whith bitcoins, is that you don't need a complex code into your website in order to accept donations. Basically all you need is to display a bitcoin address.
However, I wonder if using a single fixed unique address is a good idea. Because it could allow anyone, including the tax-humgry government, to know exactly how many bitcoins you have received.
I'm not concerned about this, because I don't maintain any website. But I might be in the future. Therefore I'd like to suggest to publish a small CGI script that would create a new bitcoin-address for every visitor who would like to make donation.
I suck a CGI programming, but at least I know that any programming language can be used to do that. So I guess a simple "bitcoind getnewaddress SOMELABEL" could be used, where SOMELABEL would be any string the donator would like to enter.
I'd appreciate if someone could post an example of such a script.
