jquery.bucketlist

Description

jquery.bucketlist is a jQuery plugin that allows you to display a random collection of BucketList items retrieved for a given user from the site BucketList.org. It works very similarly to the Twitter jQuery plugin by Damien du Toit.

The plugin can be easily customized to only retrieve completed or pending BucketList items by changing the request URL using the details on the BucketList.org API page. Like most jQuery widgets it's very easy to customize and style.

Usage

To use the plugin download and include jquery.bucketlist in your website. It's then as simple as calling the getBucketList function on whatever element you to populated with the BucketList items.

        $("#elementid").getBucketList({
            username: 'userid',
            numItems: 16
        });
    

You can find a working sample on my home page.
