I just made a bot for the
Semantic Web Interest Group IRC scratchpad
(aka chump)
that pulls the mentioned URIs, titles, keywords and comments out of
the
existing feed and posts them to a dedicated
swigbot account
on del.icio.us.
The user nicks on IRC turn into either
taggedby:nick or
commentedby:nick
and the chump keywords into del.icio.us tags. It only grabs
items that have been given the 'swig' tag to get a little bit of
discrimination
going on, rather than random mentioned URIs.
The code is Python and 95% based on code written by Matt Biddulph, including his wonderful python client library for del.icio.us he described in del.icio.us experiment.
This is just part 1 of the experiment as del.icio.us provides RDF outputs - RSS 1.0 feeds for everything. So that can be used for something else...
