Brain Tags: August 2008 Archives

After the redesign of El Canasto, it was time to redesign Brain tags, which had been using a MT default template for some time now. I found the excellent Mid-Century templatea good fit, and after some minor modifications I applied the style.

I also took the opportunity to change the publishing model from a fulle static model to a static model with some dynamic components for some sidebar widgets. This allows me to include recent information (entries, comments) on all pages without having to rebuild them and while still taking advantage of the higher performance of static publishing. This is a very nive feature of the new 4.2 release of Movable Type.
