Latest Post Blogroll Slider with jQuery and PHP

In this tutorial we are going to create a blogroll slider that shows the latest post of your favorite blogs. We will be using jQuery, PHP and XSL. The aim is to get a given RSS feed of a blog and  parse the XML data with the help of PHP. We will apply XSL to transform the feed into HTML and cache the result for subsequent use. We will be using a lot of CSS3 properties for a polished look.
