deviantArt

There are many great artists in deviantART, but I have to admit that I don’t really have energy to start search great wallpapers in deviantArt because there is also loads of crap. Anyway here is couple great ones:...

Parsing delicious feed using SimplePie

First, I got help from some php ninjas (thank you a lot), SimplePie’s documentation and mailing list were useful too. Just that you know I know very little about php. Anyway I wanted to share this little thing with you.
