Description
This series of hacks use javascript to display the contents of a tag in your Del.icio.us account in a post on your blog. This pulls blog-search results away from Del.icio.us and integrates them into your template, making the categories appear to be part of your blog set-up and addressing the issue raised by folks who don't like to be taken off-blog to see a list of tagged content.
Method
As per the how-to's linked above, create a post in your blog for each category, & then use a Feed2Javascript service to take the Del.icio.us tag feed and reformat it as a script. Publish the script in the post you created. Hard-code links in your sidebar to each of these dynamic posts.
3Spots version of this hack includes expand / collapse sidebar menus.
