[Tutor] using a for loop with feedparser

[Tonu Mikk]

I now have a new question related to the same project.  I currently have 
a code snippet like this:

1.for item in d.entries:
2.    link = Link(url=item.link)
3.    link.save()
4.    user = User.objects.get(id=1)
5.    link = Link.objects.get(id=1)
6.    bookmark = Bookmark (
7.        title = item.title,
8.        desc = item.description,
9.        link = link,
10.      user = user,
11.  )
12.  bookmark.save()

I need to increment the link id (line 5) for each item in the 
d.entries.  I tried "link = Link.objects.get(id=id+1)" and "link = 
Link.objects.get((id=1)+1)", but both of them generated errors.   I am 
not quite sure where to go from here.

Thank you,
Tonu
