RSS Help for War on Terror Channel.... Please?
Okay, so I have a slight problem I can't seem to figure out on my own and I thought I'd offer it up to the far more knowlegable code-monkeys that frequent this site.
So, as you can see if you go to the War On Terror Channel page, I've got it set up so a list of links from a del.icio.us account shows up. I'd like to keep this for compiling links of resources, but I'd also like a way for the latest news headlines to appear because I don't have the time everyday to go around hunting for them and then posting them to del.icio.us.
I was trying to figure out a way to get the BBC Middle East news roll to show up via RSS feed but I am stumped. The BBC RSS helps section seems to imply that I can use their feed on my website, but I can't figure out how to do this.
Will somebody look at this and see what we can do?

How about plugging the BBC feed into a widget, and then embedding the widget in the sidebar:

That looks like it will work. Very neat.
If you want to have only one widget with both del.icio.us and BBC feeds, try Yahoo Pipes. And I like Feedburner Buzzboost for the html widget. That's what I used on the Rock and Roll chanell... I could put this together for ya, just let me know.
Sweet, thanks everybody! I'll have to have a look at those options when I have a minute to sit down and tinker... and thanks for the offer of help MLX, if I can't figure this out myself I will certainly drop you a line!
