I found this on MacOSX Hints tonight. It is an Applescript that will let you post items directly from NetNewsWire to your del.icio.us account.

tell application "NetNewsWire"
  set u to (URL of selectedHeadline) & "&title=" & ¬
  (title of selectedHeadline) & "&extended=" & ¬
  (description of selectedHeadline) & "&tags=" & ¬
  (subject of selectedHeadline)
end tell

tell application "Safari"
  activate
  open location ¬
  "http://del.icio.us/YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME?noui=yes&jump=close&url=" ¬
  & u
end tell

Just copy that to your script editor, modify it to point to your del.icio.us account, and save it to your NetNewsWire Scripts folder. When you are in NNW, just select a headline, then select this script from the menu.
