DeliciousAPI Description

Unofficial Python API for retrieving data from delicious.com DeliciousAPI is a Python module that provides some nice features (see below for details).The official delicious.com API and the JSON/RSS feeds do not provide all the functionality mentioned above, and in such cases this module will query the delicious.com website directly and extract the required information by parsing the HTML code of the resulting web pages (a kind of poor man's web mining). The module is able to detect IP throttling, which is employed by delicious.com to temporarily block abusive HTTP request behavior, and will raise a custom Python error to indicate that. Please be a nice netizen and do not stress the delicious.com service more than necessary.It is strongly advised that you read the delicious.com Terms of Use before using this Python module. In particular, read section 5 'Intellectual Property'.The code is licensed to you under version 2 of the GNU General Public License.
