Adactio Elsewhere : the power of web API's + XML

Adactio (Jeremy Keith) has built Adactio Elsewhere - using the power of alphabet soup, in this case: PHP5, Web Services, XML, XSL, OPML, RSS, JavaScript, DOM Scripting, Ajax, XHTML and CSS - to gather piece of his info into one Personal Portal Page.

How? Short answer : Restful API's such as Amazon , Flickr, Del.icio.us and Upcoming, returning XML parsed by PHP5's superb new DOM functions, and styled by XSL/CSS . A nice dollop of progressive enhancement with Ajax for spice.

Very Slick. Very Powerful. Let's take a peek...
