Introduction to Services_Delicious

Services_Delicious is an abstraction for the webservice of the social bookmarking site del.icio.us. del.icio.us allows you to easily add sites you like to your personal collection of links, to categorize those sites with keywords, and to share your collection not only between your own browsers and machines, but also with others.

del.icio.us is using "tags" to categorize your bookmarks and allows other users to browse bookmarks by topic.

Services_Delicious enables you to access, add and even delete your social bookmarks by using a Services_Delicious class that provides functions like getAllPosts(), addPost() or deletePost().
