and it turns into:

With your own associate ID at the end.
This was extremely not straightfoward. D'oh!

This is the line of code that's confusing me:
asin_list = params[:contents].to_a.inject([]) { |acc, item| acc | item.whiteboard[:asins].to_a }
When I set a breakpoint after this line, asin_list always contains nothing.
params[:contents] contains a ton of stuff including the html contents of my blog.
asin_list = params[:contents].to_a.inject([]) { |acc, item| acc}
returns nothing
asin_list = params[:contents].to_a.inject([]) { |acc, item| item }
returns pretty much the same thing as params[:contents]
Toward the end of the string returned by the last asin_list above, there's this: "whiteboard" =>{}
So, it looks to me that something should be setting something into this whiteboard, maybe.
If I look at:
asin_list = params[:contents].to_a.inject([]) { |acc, item| item.whiteboard }
I get {}
Similarly
asin_list = params[:contents].to_a.inject([]) { |acc, item| item.whiteboard.to_a }
returns []
So, what's the whiteboard, and how does stuff get into it?

I'm trying to figure out how to use the Amazon Sidebar component. Is it currently broken? I've tried every sort of Amazon link I can think of and I never get anything on my sidebar dealing with Amazon. Is there a proper way to set up my URLs so that they'll work? Here's what I've been using:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/097669400X/donaghehomepa-20
and just
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/097669400X/
Neither of these cause anything to show up on the sidebar.
Thanks for any clues here!
