On Wyome.com today, there's a note about a site that provides code snippets for different languages. Unfortunately, there's only 48 of them for PHP.

There are 48 snippets of PHP code at Code Snippets. Code Snippets looks to have more of a selection of Ruby snippets, but that might be what Peter Cooper originally created the site for.

I know there are few more sites that have quite a few more listed, but this is the first site that I have seen that is in the format of a blog rather than a directory. It's a bit more interesting for a casual browse which is what my habits are. However, there are no RSS feeds that I could find which is a bit disappointing, and there isn't any syntax highlighting on the scripts.

He also mentions in interesting idea - a "code snippet" feed, providing you and your reader with the latest snippets from a site. It would be a pretty cool project - unfortunately you run into a lot of the administrative-ness of the thing: verifying that code won't cause security problems, ensuring it's even close to being right, etc.

Has anyone else seen anything like this?

(As a side note, an interesting use for trackbacks could be from applications/sites that are using the code - showing it's use and how flexible it could be at the same time)
