Homepage getting stale? Add a del.icio.us linkroll to your site. A what? If you're not familiar with del.icio.us, read this. Otherwise, proceed…
A linkroll is just a bit of code that takes your del.icio.us account and creates a self-updating feed of links that you can insert anywhere on your site. It's a great way to add value to your site and keep your homepage or news page content fresh and revolving. Here's how to get started:
Sign up for a del.icio.us account for your organization
Start posting industry-specific links to your account - anything you come across that might be of interest to your visitors. You can even post links to your own content.

I laughed as Mr. ”This Isn’t So Hot” almost wept due to the fire in his mouth!
(James brought home leftovers so he can light up tomorrow too.)
Zingerman’s promised hot chicken - and delivered […]
Or at least your brain thinks that’s the case, according to a research study Tom Asacker talks about on A Clear Eye (looks like a story about it was published in Science magazine). So, according to the study, if someone gives you a glass of $10 wine and tells you it’s from a $90 bottle, […]
No, not the Oscar winners–the hotels and restaurants who received a four- or five-star designation from Mobil Travel Guide. And the stars go to…nah, I’m not going to list them all here. Why should I, when Hotel Online does it for me?
Here’s to a star-studded year!
Beyond some of their really cool fringe benefits, like afternoon tea, I think two factors are the biggest contributors. One, Google’s famous 70/20/10 work schedules. A total of 70% is spent working on your normal projects. Another 20% is devoted to related projects. The remaining 10% is yours to work on anything you want. A […]
