I want to upload photos to picasa using C# in WP7. Where I can download the picasa API's for WP7. It would be really nice if there is an example on how to authenticate and also upload photos.
There are some examples available:
Getting started with OAuth in C#
Uploading picture to picasaweb
Please share your solution if you manage to get it to work

I am currently working on an UWP project where I need to take a photo using the device's camera before uploading it to my online service which is hosted on Azure.
How could I achieve this?
To upload photos to Azure, it's best to use Azure Blob Storage. Here's a link to the Quickstart guide as well as some sample code.
I keep finding posts about preparing websites to be "postable" within the Facebook Status update (like with a youtube link that when typed from on the Facebook Status Update edit box and it will display in your TimeLine).
What I need is the opposite:
From my own website, I would like to have a button that when clicked, it should automatically post a specific video that is hosted within my website (or I could post a specific webpage that has the video inside).
What's the process to accomplish that?
Do I need Open Graph?
Do I need an Facebook App?
Do I need to use FQL?
Can I achieve this solely using FB Javascript SDK?
Should I use FacebookSDK for .Net (I'm using Asp.MVC and C#)?
Please any help would be truly appreciated.
I'm so lost on this one !!
Do I need Open Graph?
The Graph API is the primary way to get data in and out of Facebook's
social graph. It's a low-level HTTP-based API that you can use to
query data, post new stories, upload photos and a variety of other
tasks that an app might need to do.
How to Use Graph Api Take a look at FB Docs. The Graph API and Quick Start
Do I need an Facebook App?
You need to create facebook app. Its required for authentication
purpose. when you read and write its must need access. If you create
you will get APP ID and APP Secret ID to give the access.
Go Here and get logged in and Create an APP.
Should I use FacebookSDK for .Net (I'm using Asp.MVC and C#)?
If you are okay to go with C# with ASP.NET then in FaceBook Official site they are suggesting many third parties SDK which is free. For
Authentication, File Upload and Download you can use the SDK.
Click here to Go
Can I achieve this solely using FB Javascript SDK?
I'm not sure whether you can use FB Javascript SDK for uploading. I
just guess you can't use. Take a look how they are using FB
Javascript SDK.
Do I need to use FQL?
Facebook Query Language, or FQL, enables you to use a SQL-style
interface to query the data exposed by the Graph API. It provides
advanced features not available in the Graph API.
FQL Why and What? Read Here
I've been doing a quite a bit of research on how to authenticate with vimeo.
Problem is, I have yet to find a decent solution with C#.
The wrappers I've found seems outdated and does not have an option to upload a video after authenticating.
Any suggestions on where i should start?
Would it be better/easier doing it with JavaScript?
If you use Vimeo's new API (https://developer.vimeo.com/api) they use OAuth 2.0 which is MUCH easier.
Additionally, in either version of the API uploading does not need to be signed so you don't need an authentication library for that part. You need authentication until you get the upload url, upload your file without authentication, and then complete the file with authentication.
I just wanted to know
It is simple to upload videos to youtube in c# but i want to do that without using their API. I am going to create a webpart for office365, so i can't use any external dlls. Only the .NET framework's assembly i can use.
Incase you want to upload to youtube you should use their apis, otherwise there is no way you can upload on to youtube, incase your problem is install APIs on office365 cloud, then you can look for Webservices to upload to Youtube, in web services case you have no dlls to register on the cloud.
No not simple, you have to create something that does what their API does. You do not have to build all functionality, only what you need. But still; not easy.
I am trying to use plupload http://www.plupload.com/ to upload images to an amazon s3 bucket and I want to also store the images urls in a sql server using asp.net MVC to be able to use them in the future. I am incredibly lost on exactly what to do. All the articles have really confused me.
Please help me in:
1) Re-size images to a maximum width and height on client size.
2) Upload images directly to amazon s3 (showing a progress bar).
3) Store image location in a database.
(How to link with plupload with MVC C# given that files are uploaded to s3 directly)
I can help with the post directly the S3 part.
I created a sample MVC3 app and put it on Github. It's currently setup for videos but if you change the content-type and some of the plupload settings it will easily work for images. This Ruby on Rails examples is configured for images:
