What you're trying to do is fairly simple and could be accomplished with a database of 
links to the templates in your site.

Create a table with these fields:

id_link (autonumber)
link_title
link_url
last_updated

Populate the database either manually or via a web-based admin form that you create.

Then create a query to pull up the links in the order you want them displayed.  Use 
DateDiff to figure the difference between the last_updated and conditionally display a 
"new" icon next to the link.

> And a page that lists these updates.
