I just downloaded the DotNetOpenAuth library and ran the AuthConsumer demo. It is an excellent library so far! Everything worked as advertised, which has not been my experience with a lot of Facebook and Twitter sample code that I have been working with recently.
What I am trying to figure out is: How do I tweet using this library? I am currently planning to implement this in ASP MVC, but my initial thoughts is that the presentation platform doesn't matter all that much at the level I'm looking at.
Take a look at the DotNetOpenAuth.ApplicationBlock sample, which includes the Twitter.cs file and the very few sample web method calls that that file has. You can see the pattern, and having looked at the Twitter API documentation on twitter.com, you can add methods to tweet and a bunch of other stuff.
However, it would probably be much easier for you to download LinqToTwitter, which uses DotNetOpenAuth and offers an extensive Twitter library to do most/all the operations Twitter supports.

My apologies if this has already been requested/answered before, but I'm having a hard time trying to find information on the web about this. I've been tasked to find a way to directly update the content of a Google Sites page (Such as a text box or image) using the API.
I've been looking about the web for examples of doing this using C#, and have not found much to go by. I have some experience with writing/calling REST and SOAP APIs, but I can't seem to work out what Google uses for its API.
I'm struggling as to how I approach this, as the few examples I have found don't really walk through the code, so they leave me little to understand in order to manipulate it to what I want to achieve. One site I did find was Sites API Demo
Does anybody have any examples, or able to provide a simple example of updating content on a Google Site?
I appreciate any help you can give.

I realise this is an old question, but I have successfully updated the content of a google sites page using the library provided here, and following the example in the wiki.
I compiled the source as a .dll and added it as a reference to my project.
How can I retrieve all tweets for specific twitter user "#username" in windows store apps?
I would probably consider using an HttpWebRequest to make a call to the Twitter API.
There are a few Tweeter Wrapper around,
Checkout this wrapper : https://github.com/danielcrenna/tweetsharp
TweetSharp is a Twitter API library that greatly simplifies the task
of adding Twitter to your desktop, web, and mobile applications. You
can build simple widgets, or complex application suites using
TweetSharp. The second version, a rewrite, was designed to be lighter,
faster, and more intuitive than the original. You write fewer lines of
code, make fewer decisions, and get better results. Visual Studio T4
templates are employed to automatically generate new API methods from
a simple text-based DSL.
I posted a tutorial about that a couple of days ago. Take a look:

Should explain it :)
I've been trying to use Google Spreadsheet API in C# by following these instructions.
I downloaded the API from the official Downloads page. However, there are two things wrong with it:
The API seems outdated, because I could not find the class OAuth2Parameters mentioned in the tutorial, only OAuthParameters.
The sample directory only contains executable files and no source code. I could really use the source code of the Spreadsheet.exe sample, as it fits my needs pretty well.
You can grab the source code from the project page - I've just done that and built it with no problems. OAuth2Parameters is in the oauthparameters.cs file. I don't know if there's a binary release of the latest version of the libraries, I'm afraid.
(Note that I work for Google, but this post isn't written on behalf of Google - I haven't had much to do with the GData API, although I know someone who has, so if this answer doesn't help I may be able to get more information on Monday...)
As a little learning project, I'd like to make a little app that reads data from a facebook users status updates. It's been done millions of times before, I'm sure, but is there an API or something? Would I need to signup for some Facebook developers license or anything, or is it as easy as finding the API, and then simply coding to it?
I'd like to simply get friends Status Updates via my login... seems easy enough. :)
The Facebook Developer links posted above are good, but it might be useful to look at some examples.
The Facebook C# SDK, found here: http://facebooksdk.codeplex.com/, has samples in ASP.NET MVC. It's a pretty simple project, so it should be relatively easy to see how things work in practice.
You can create an app at http://developers.facebook.com/
Then, download the sample project, replace the AppId and AppSecret with values from your registered app, and see how it works.
You can start reading here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/
And look in the forum discussions here: http://forum.developers.facebook.net/index.php
This post was helpful to me http://gathadams.com/2007/06/18/how-to-write-a-facebook-application-in-10-minutes/
Also keep in mind this last change made for FB team about Post for canvas http://developers.facebook.com/docs/canvas/post/
Good luck!
Where to find source code to read google adsense account earnings ? any language welcome especially c#, php.
Update: I still don't have any source code until now that seem to work.
Unfortunately all of the other answers are using either deprecated API or are linking to 404 pages.
Google did release a new management API for AdSense which is well documented:
https://developers.google.com/adsense/management/
Documentation is here It's a very in-depth webservice that allows you not only to get access to reporting, but also create, modify, etc campaigns.
This is an interesting low-tech approach. It's featured on the CURL website. Could be re purposed for your application.
You could use this php library http://code.google.com/p/php-adsense-account-library/
