This is a project I've been working on.

From the article: "The Mercedes-Benz R-Class is a hard vehicle to classify. It has the size of an SUV, the looks of a minivan and the carlike unibody structure of a crossover. But it's not really any of them. It's roomier than your typical crossover, doesn't have sliding side doors like a minivan, and drives like a car, not a wonky SUV.

No matter how you categorize it, though, one fact remains the same: The R-Class has been the roomiest and most comfortable European-made people-mover since it was introduced to the public as a 2006 model year vehicle."

We love our 2009 R-Class we bought last October. From over a dozen vehicles we looked over and drove, it was the clear winner.

After hooking up my autoposter for movies and photos, I've completed progress on a Delicious URL autoposter.

Now I'm not a big Delicious user, but I figured that I could use delicious as the clearinghouse for sharing links with my blog readers. The previous post on this blog is the first test of the script.

For anyone who runs a blosxom blog (or anything that can use or extend what I've written) here is the code... The intent is to run this via cron hourly. There are only two configuration requirements: Your delicious user id (to read your public feed) and the path to your blog entry files (wordpress/MT users can replace the file writes with db inserts and get the same thing).

Enjoy!

Looks interesting. Similar in character styling of "Meet the Robinsons" rather than like the Pixar produced films.
