Description

Dashboard incoming link widget currently requests the latest 20 citations from Google Blog Search but displays between 1 and 20 items (default 10).

Matching the total number of requested items with the display list size reduces bytes over the wire as well as processing time to convert the RSS string into a mapped array. For users with the default widget settings this cuts the response and subsequent parse in half.

Removed hard-coded home language of English from link URL and feed URL. Results are pulled from all languages, and home language set by Google when visit occurs.
