Does anyone know a library similar to Openinviter but for connecting your asp.net site to social networks

Question

Hi,

we are currently developing a website which will heavily involve connections to several social networks. I name a few (facebook, youtube, flickr, google contacts, windows live contacts, twitter,...)

i know (from collegues) that a library exists for php. called openInviter (http://openinviter.com)

though this site has to be in asp.net and probably with the CMS Umbraco (http://www.umbraco.org)

Instead of targetting each site trough its own (or custom community build) library we were wondering if anyone knows a similar library that target all or many social networks at once. Greatly simplifying the work and complexity of the project.

Answer 1

Have you seen RPXNow? There is a .NET library available.

Answer 2

Depending on what you're looking at doing with the Social Networks, you might want to check out YQL - Yahoo! Query Language - this allows you to work with one API to access a whole host of supported and custom APIs, which might well simplify things for you.
