Posting bookmarks

Paul Westbrook | 01 June, 2008 01:36

It looks like posting from within del.icio.us is not working. The last time that I saw this work was in April.

Now I need to find a way to post links to my blog. I could use the javascript to show "shared" items from Google Reader, but this will not allow me to link to things that I don't find from Google Reader.

What I would like to find is a way to post the links from an rss feed.  This would allow me to post del.icio.us links and shared items from Google Reader.

Use FriendFeed? [Reply]

Why not use FriendFeed?

FriendFeed [Reply]

There are several problems with using FriendFeed as the solution

1) They don't offer a widget that would allow me to easily embed the content into my pages, (and even if they did, I wouldn't want to insert an javascript that could cause my page loads to take longer.)
2) The don't offer feeds of subsets of my feeds. So if I only wanted to post del.icio.us links, there isn't an easy way to do this.

You got me thinking. I think that I can use FriendFeed and use Yahoo Pipes to filter the rss feed, and then use magpierss to post the contents to my site.
