Why link to a page, not embedding the address directly?
Well, you can embed your address in every page of your site, a clean way of letting Bitcoin users know you accept Bitcoin, and if the address changes, you only need to change one file.
Also, in the future, I'd like to use it as a base for sending money, it's a pain typing and sending money to \"113oN6A93WnAiK2iKD4BpVMQyDY4fbGEay\", so why not just send money to \"jonwaller.net\", with the Bitcoin address being taken automatically from the web site.
