ways to generate a linkblog display

I blog to a bookmarking service (Furl) and then as you can see if you're reading this as a web page, I display some of those bookmarks in my sidebar on the right.  There are a few ways to do this:

* Linkroll has built-in features for making JavaScript to display links.  Click the JS button on your links page.
* Furl has built-in features for making JavaScript as well, they call it Add Furl to My Site.
* Delicious provides an HTML service, which you are supposed to cache if you want to display it on your page.  UPDATE 2005-Nov-17 Delicious also provides JavaScript linkrolls.  JS link via blogdriverswaltz.
* The main other option is to take an RSS feed and use a service to turn it into JavaScript.

The main RSS-to-JavaScript service I use is Feedsplitter.  It provides some styles that you can define on your site.

A new one is FeedBurner's BuzzBoost.  First take the RSS and create a FeedBurner feed from it.  Then select "Publicize your feed", and configure BuzzBoost.

UPDATE 2006-02-26: Note that Typepad can display RSS feeds directly in the sidebar.  To embed RSS feeds in your sidebar, go to Weblogs - Design - Change Content Selections and go to the lower right, you should see a Feeds section where you can add RSS feeds.

It's good to have a collection of these as many have unique displaying features

Cheers ;)
