Thing Twenty-Two:
Use a widget (aka Gadget) to display your del.icio.us bookmarks on your iGoogle page.
This involves customizing your iGoogle page again, using the "Add stuff" link - this time though, you have some new Web 2.0 content to display: your delicious.com bookmarks.
There are a number of different "Gadgets" that will accomplish this - I used "My del.icio.us" You need to edit the Gadget settings to tell it your delicious.com username, then it will show your most recent bookmarks on iGoogle. Feel free to try different delicious-related gadgets and see how they compare.

There are two widgets with the same name "My del.icio.us". I recommend you add the one by LabPixies and ignore the one by Alex Young, as the latter prompts you to add your username but doesn't appear to provide the relevant link to display your bookmarks.
Hi Cesar - I got the Alex Young one to display my bookmarks on iGoogle page, but your mileage may vary, as they say. I hadn't realized there were two gadgets with the same name, thanks for the info.
