Simple Templating

Simple Templating from mezzoblue provides a straightforward and solid templating system. I’ve typically followed the same type of practice on my sites, though Dave Shea’s practice of setting the body class as a variable was a new idea to me - one which I will adopt.

Even cooler is the use of a PHP array to provide the flexibility of using different style sheets per page. I’ve needed this functionality in past projects, but hadn’t solved the issue anywhere near as elegantly.

BoingBoing Sounds

Two interesting audio related links popped up on Boing Boing recently:

Webjay - “BoingBoing Found Sounds” by tomwsmf: provides easy access to “all the audio mentioned on Boing Boing” for your listening and podcasting pleasure.
Turtle’s “78 RPM” Jukebox: a collection of “MP3s made from hundreds of 78RPM discs recorded between 1900 and 1930. Included are notes on the transfer process and discographic information.”
