Post Delicious Bookmarks to Your Blog
Delicious has an experimental service that allows you to enter information about your blog, and have Delicious post a summary of your latest bookmarks to your blog.
Assuming you are a Delicious member (free) you can get to the Blog Posting Interface via this URL:
https://secure.delicious.com/settings/blogging/posting
In the interface, the "out_url" section is where you put the so-called "XML-RPC" URL for your blog software. This is not your blog URL but rather the URL of the API for posting via blog publishing software.
For Blogger, the XML-RPC URL is:
http://www.blogger.com/feeds/YOUR-BLOGGER-ID/posts/default
You can get your Blogger ID by going to the Blogger web interface, making a new post, and hovering your mouse over the "Edit Posts" link. That said, I have tried this with various numbers for the "out_id" section, my Blogger blog ID, the numeral 1 and so on, as well as various variations of the Blogger XML-RPC URL, but, nothing works. So, I'll relay an alternative method.
Posting Delicious to Blogger via Feedburner
Here's how to do it:
- Enter your Delicious RSS feed into Feedburner.
- Republish as a Feedburner feed, and adjust in Feedburner as you like, including publishing the feed via email on the Publicize tab.
- Subscribe to your Feedburner feed for your Delicious using your special post-to-Blogger email address. You can subscribe on the FeedBurner feed page - there's a link to subscribe by email, and you can enter your email-to-blogger email address there.
That should do it. Enjoy!
Update 11 Dec - thanks Adam. I incorporated your suggestions.
