Roller Templates - could we use SiteMesh?
One of the problems with Roller's "themes" is that you have to re-create the entire HTML structure of the page when you add new pages. While this can be simplified using includes, there's got to be a a better way. An ideal solution would be to allow each user to specify a "decorator" and then use SiteMesh to pull this decorator from the database and decorate a user's pages. This seems simple enough, but is it possible?

Importing OS X Address Book into GMail One of the problems with using GMail over .Mac is that I don't have easy synchronization of my contacts from OS X's Address Book. However, there is an easy way to get your initial set of contacts imported. Google is your friend - "export contacts gmail mac" brings up this howto. Here's the condensed version:
- Download AddressBookToCSV
- Click on "Contacts" in GMail and import
Very nice - GMail definitely has one of the best web interfaces I've ever used. Who says JavaScript sucks?
