Synchronise Delicious and WordPress: plugins

When I started this blog, one of big talk was about blogroll, the list of links generally displayed in the blog sidebar. Until now, I totally neglected this list.

Today, the blogroll is not really THE topic, and I don’t know if this list is still really important or not. I decided however to work on this subject, in order to have a clean blogroll, reflecting my current interests and activity.

I currently store my bookmarks in the tool Delicious, that is, for me, very efficient. The main objective of this post and the followings, is to see how to synchronize the linkroll of Delicious and the blogroll of WordPress.
I previously wrote somethings on this subject, suggesting some plugins, but I stopped to work on it, immediately after. So I prefer to restart the study from the beginning.

One of my criteria is to see if plugins use non-standard WordPress tables: To keep some consistency, I prefer that the plugin uses only the existing structure and does not create additional tables.
When I develop my own plugins, I follow the same principle. But is this strategy relevant? Is it really good?
