blogger API and del.icio.us rss feed block

Hello world:
The already configured module called "blogger api" has a kind of hard to get feature really useful:

The little image at the right of the rss blocks now allows you to quickly enter a review on your "research journal".

This way you can quickly pick the items from your (or other's!) rss feeds and create a review of them.

On the same side of the web, I've created a block with the category delicious of the rss feeds. I've added armin's and my own delicious rss feeds there. I haven't added more because they weren't public on the user profiles but is pretty easy to do so. If you add other feeds under the same category, then the new links will appear under the "mixed delicious" category that you can see at the right border. If you are logged in, that block will also have the little , so it will be easy to pick up your delicious items to create an entry on your research journal...

For adding a new one:

don't forget to add the "delicious"category, for making it appear on the "mixed delicious" block.

your decious rss feed is:

appearing on more places

As it was just a test, I didn't wanted to spread it all around, so I've changed the configuration of the block to see it just in some places.

Unfortunately I've never looked onto how to make the little [b]s to appear on more places...
We can make the blocks appear more often, though. Check it in Administer/Block/Configure

lets get rss_ delirious/cious

this is really nice, especially the mixed delicius block. if you are not locked in at the right hand side you can now see a block 'mixed delicious'.

what I dont get is the configuration of ths other block with the tech news and why I see the little b's only if a feed is in a block, not when it is in a page? so how do I get see these b's more often?

i suggest to share our social bookmarks this ways as acracia suggests by making delicius an rss feed and linking it back in here. contributors btw do have rights to remix the rss on this site, so please join remixing our feed bouquet and the links that we 'entertain'

unfortunatly urgtent things make me run, so my comment stays short but hope more on this soon
