Hi Johan and Alf, your help would be greatly appreciated!
Actually, I have another use case where I don't have the skills to
implement, yet. So, I'm maintaining a book exhibit on my MIT site:
http://people.csail.mit.edu/dfhuynh/books.html
But I started out creating a similar list on my blog a while ago:
http://dfhuynh.wordpress.com/library/
I was thinking, would it be possible for me to embed an exhibit of books
right inside my blog and feed the data from Google Spreadsheets?... That
way, we can make a lot of blogs host structured data while keeping the
editing interface as simple as spreadsheets.
What do you think? Has this been done? How much work would that take?
David
