It's amazing how simple this is to integrate into django. When a view is creating a page, it just calls a thin wrapper function that I put around the daypi module. - Bracket Boy
I found the Daylife API for PHP really easy to use, and coded something up quickly for my site, Brooklyn and Beyond - Brooklyn & Beyond

I was trying to make it work by using Google News RSS feeds but turned out impossible since they don't organize their data in the feeds. I now know its possible with the Daylife API - Akash Xavier

Thanks!
This is a good access to the latest news about celebrities and related issues. Talking about celebrity news, I want to learn more about Aiden Quinn’s car accident. I hope I can find it there. It was said that Aiden Quinn could wind up with one enormous cell phone bill. The reason why is that he is a trolley driver, and he recently was the driver in a trolley crash, allegedly because at the time of the crash Aiden Quinn was text messaging his girlfriend. The crash caused about $9.6 million in damages, and that's just to the trolley and other Green Line (the company) property. Luckily, no one was killed, and none of the injuries were life-threatening. Personal loans won't cover this kind of bill. Quinn is still employed by the company, even though prior to his employment he had several moving violations. Still, Green Line will likely need debt relief after Aiden Quinn.
