Amazon has a "Reading List" application on LinkedIn. Has anyone succeeded in extracting the data from your own reading list? I would like to integrate this on my own site.

Should I use oAuth, for example LinkedIn or Twitter, as my signin mechanism for my app? It seems that most apps just use oAuth to connect other services to it, but they make you set up your own user/password after you use oAuth (including StackOverflow), and I'm not really sure why this is. Would love some insight here. Thank you. ...
I'm currently trying to use this gem http://github.com/pengwynn/linkedin. Everything works fine (i.e. authentication and calling the method which gets the profile), except that the profile object only contains the first name and the last name. I'm trying to get my own profile info through the api, so the necessary information is there....

Does anyone have an example that parses out the information from a LinkedIn profile using VB Script?

I'm using the LinkedIn Profile widget on my site and am using the popup version. Although it's functional, I don't like the little LinkedIn icon that's placed as I'm already using a larger LinkedIn icon. Is it possible to hide the smaller one? (I assume it's built into the class, but there may be an option somewhere?) If not, is it possi...

I want to be able to update a user's status, but at the moment I'm unable to interact with LinkedIn's API at all. I am able to successfully get a requestToken, then an accessToken, but when I issue a request to the API, ...

A good example of a site that does this is Answers.com, on the homepage they have a set of buttons, and each button gives a simple pop up window to confirm the connection. I know that I can implement each connection individually, bu...
There are many articles and threads about guidelines while sending bulk emails. Most of the times it was mentioned that emails should be sent to the subscribed users. So that we can avoid "users clicking on spam in their mail boxes". There are some features in famous social networking sites where we can send invitations to Yahoo contact...
