Just started work on my second WordPress plugin, this time it’s an MP3 jukebox…

XML, Flash and No Database!

A development, non plugged-in version can be found here.

So far, it has the following features:

• XML-driven, no database required
• Configurable data source (XML or PHP)
• Configurable mp3 base directory
• Configurable playlist mp3 directory (for separate albums etc.)
• Skinnable!
• Configurable text, label and title colours
• Autoplay on/off
• Pseudo spectrum analyzer overlay
• Pop-up standalone (listen whilst browsing)

GeoJoe, a UK-based IP Geolocation outfit, have just unleashed a smart little API.

The GeoJoe API can:

• Fetch Geolocation data for single IP addresses;
• Fetch XML geolocation data for a batch of IP addresses (CSV);
• Embed a Geolocation badge based on visitor or passed IP address;
• Embed a country flag based on visitor or passed IP address;
• Embed a Flash map with real-time visitor plotting (coming soon)
