By the way, if you based it on the Geekzone Forums gadget, make sure to not change the tmers! We don't need a DDoS inflicted by our users...

Its based on the Geekzone forums gadget and yes am not going to change the time interval that it updates its feeds. My problem currently is, the feeds get fetched when I add the gadget, but the update in that interval of time is not happening, thats what am looking into now. It was happening earlier, but suddenly something has changed in the code!
