Is there a blog info object?

Taken from the source code of get_bloginfo(), Here is a very very simple class you can utelize and extent at your will.

I have decided to make use of methods, making properties public from a class is really not great coding and not recommended. I know WordPress thrive on public properties, but that is WordPress.

Here is the class (which you should convert to make use of proper namespacing, as I said, this is an extremely simple and plain class)

class GetBlogInfo
{
    // Return the home URL
    public function homeURL() 
    {
        return home_url();
    }

    // Return the site URL
    public function siteURL() 
    {
        return site_url();
    }

    // Return the blog description
    public function description() 
    {
        return get_option('blogdescription');
    }

    // Get the feed links
    public function getFeedLink( $link = '' ) 
    {
        switch( $link ) {
            case 'rdf_url':
                $output="rdf";
                break;
            case 'rss_url':
                $output="rss";
                break;
            case 'rss2_url':
                $output="rss2";
                break;
            case 'atom_url':
                $output="atom";
                break;
            case 'comments_atom_url':
                $output="comments_atom";
                break;
            case 'comments_rss2_url':
                $output="comments_rss2";
                break;
            default:
                $output = false;
                break;
        }

        if ( $output ) {
            return get_feed_link( $output );
        } else {
            return false;
        }
    }

    // Return the blog options. Default is name
    public function getOptions( $option = 'name' ) 
    {
        switch( $option ) {
            case 'admin_email':
                $output="admin_email";
                break;
            case 'charset':
                $output="blog_charset";
                break;
            case 'html_type':
                $output="html_type";
                break;
            case 'name':
            default:
                $output="blogname";
                break;
        }

        return get_option( $output );
    }

    // Return the blog language setting
    public function language() 
    {
        return str_replace( '_', '-', get_locale() );
    }

    // Return the WordPress version
    public function version() 
    {
        global $wp_version;
        return $wp_version;
    }

    // Return the pingback URL
    public function pingbackURL() 
    {
        return site_url( 'xmlrpc.php' );
    }

    // Return the path to main stylesheet
    public function stylesheetURL() 
    {
        return get_stylesheet_uri();
    }

    // Return the stylesheet directory uri
    public function stylesheetDirectory() 
    {
        return get_stylesheet_directory_uri();
    }

    // Return the template directory uri
    public function templateDirectory() 
    {
        return get_template_directory_uri();
    }
}

You can use the class as follow:

$q = new GetBlogInfo();
echo $q->homeURL() . '</br>';
echo $q->siteURL() . '</br>';
echo $q->description() . '</br>';
echo $q->getFeedLink( 'rdf_url' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getFeedLink( 'rss_url' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getFeedLink( 'rss2_url' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getFeedLink( 'atom_url' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getFeedLink( 'comments_atom_url' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getFeedLink( 'comments_rss2_url' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getOptions( 'name' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getOptions( 'admin_email' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getOptions( 'charset' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->getOptions( 'html_type' ) . '</br>';
echo $q->language() . '</br>';
echo $q->version() . '</br>';
echo $q->pingbackURL() . '</br>';
echo $q->stylesheetURL() . '</br>';
echo $q->stylesheetDirectory() . '</br>';
echo $q->templateDirectory() . '</br>';

This output the following as tested on my test install
