I've seen the news articles about the new laws concerning cookies[1]. 
 From what I can tell from the ICO website[1] there is no exemption from 
this law for personal or non-profit making websites.
A brief check of my personal website shows 7 cookies are being set as a 
result of using Wordpress and Google Analytics. Accordingly it seems I 
should be advising users of these cookies, giving them a chance to 
consent and change their mind.
So, has everyone else done this? ;)
