Today’s links:

  • What is Sourcebit? with Eduardo Bouças - I linked to Sourcebit a few days ago, so it's interesting to see a Smashing Magazine podcast interview with the creator of the project - He describes the various use cases really well, it's a sort of swiss army knife for ingesting and processing data from APIs, and has a plugin architecture so you can pull from any API source and push that data out to any target static site generator - It's a pretty cool javascript/NodeJs projectpodcast.smashingmagazine.com #

  • I've managed to get the styles to apply the static render of my linkblog, one thing I had to change was the day hash links, now they point to that day on the monthly archives page - The downside is that the context around a day isn't as good but at least there is the context of the current month, and for the rest well the reader has to navigate using the breadcrumbs, there is no way around it because with no server running there is no way to turn the 'date' query param into a page in the main 'infinite scroll' linkbloglinks-static.markjgsmith.com #
