Is there a way to find the data platform developer if it is not explicitly cited on its webpage - information-retrieval

I would like to find who developed a certain data platform though the funder of the platform does not include information regarding the developer on its webpage.
I searched the webpage and did a general google research but was not able to find information online.

Linkedin REST API Job Search

I've seen several posts linked to this question (some older than others) but no definitive answer.
I want to set a section on my web-page linking to the LinkedIn positions that answer to a particular, kind of specific, query.
Ideally, I would like to download and reprocess the text to mix Linkedin's job offers up with other sources and implement a layer of processing on all job positions relating to my user's needs.
Overall, what I do need is scraping LinkedIn Job Offers. I'm not too fond of the idea of implementing a scraping tool or using some external and non-supported plugin.
I've tried opening a request to LinkedIn, and I've been told I should write here with the #linkedin tag so that LinkedIn technicians' can see my bid and answer.
I have the impression that a LinkedIn API allowed searching for Job Posts/Positions and downloading the main, but the functionality it's not supported anymore. Does anyone know if that's the case or what I should do to perform that operation if that's not the case?

Is there any complete documentation for "Visual Studio Installer Projects" extension?

I have been hours looking on how to do stuff with this extension, but I can only find the outdated official documentation (which is not helping very much, is incomplete, obsolete, and has many broken links), some tutorials on how to do specific things, and forums about specific problems that are not related with what I'm looking for.
I am looking for something that would, for example, tell me what are the name of the variables someone can retrieve on User Interface's dialogs, or how can I preview the dialog to see if is what I need or not.
Is there any complete resource I can check use this extension's full potential?
thank you.

File sharing through ASP.NET

I am working on a web application where different users (online users) may share files with each other. I don't know how to implement this module, mean what should I study and search. It should be similar as we share files at FaceBook. I am working in ASP.NET/C#.
Any help, code etc will be appreciated. I have searched on Google but all results lead to
file sharing softwares which are not helpful for me.
Thanks
Tutorial here could you be good starting point. Not only the tutorial is very descriptive but also you can download the complete source code.

Data visualization / analytics / dashboard in ASP.NET (NOT Google analytics integration)

I need to create an ASP.NET site which can display graphs, charts, statistics for a dashboard type application pulling data from a backend data source.
I am trying to locate either:
(a) open-source modules that I can use / build up on
(b) tutorials which teach the above
(c) existing modules (preferably low-cost) that work well.
I did the basic googling, but found only VERY expensive paid solutions (eg: http://www.dundas.com/ $700+, http://www.devexpress.com/ $300 * n).
For simple visualizations, you should take a look at the EXTJS library. It's a free javascript framework.
http://www.sencha.com/products/js/
There are several good examples of dynamic charts there and I've found the API is pretty easy to use.
A non-free library that you can always go to is Adobe's Flex platform. That will give you more of a sexy front end. A basic license for Flash Builder (which comes with the Flex library) is only $249, so that may be within your budget.
If you can publish your data as JSON objects and have the results displayed in a browser, Protovis is a free JS library that's pretty nice to work with:
http://vis.stanford.edu/protovis/
ASP.NET is shipped with everything you need to build the application without having to purchase additional components.
(a) there are plenty of open source projects around charting. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/zedgraph.aspx
(b) there are plenty ASP.NET tutorials on the next including ones related to charting. Google is your friend here!
(c) see point a (if I understand well what you are asking for.
And the last but not least, don't hesitate to ask your questions on stackoverflow.com !

Framework /starting point for social networking site in .NET?

I did do some googling and searching on this site but did not find exactly what I was looking for.
I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction here. I'm an ASP.NET/SQL Server developer and would like to develop a (intially) basic social networking site (gasp). Before I start from scratch with a blank solution in ASP.NET, I'm wondering if there are any frameworks out there ASP.NET specific that would serve as a good starting point. I'm already thinking of using the Google Maps jquery control for my Google Maps integration, as well as the 'sharethis' control for my social networking website sharing integration. Captcha for human authentication... But other than that I'm not sure what I can leverage... Nothing on Google jumped out at me on my search terms.
I'm also wondering if anyone else has done something similar and could share their post mortem/war stories with me.
I'm also open to learning a new platform/language if it would mean saving time - my experience is mostly in ASP.NET, so that is what I plan on using if it makes the most sense. My initial requirements are basic and realistic - profile setup (images, information, etc.), 'group' creation, Google Map integration, calendar controls shared by groups, SMS support, discussion forums among groups, searching for groups, OpenID integration most likely, etc. I am not going to try to build the entire site and then release it, but take baby steps and release pieces of functionality at a time.
Any advice is greatly appreciated for a broad question such as this. Thanks again.
I've found DotNetOpenAuth which seems to be a nice API for handling OpenID for ASP.NET web forms. They also have an ASP.NET MVC version
I also found MS Web Platform. This looks like some good stuff. Anyone ever use it and think it would do well for this sort of app?
I found a library for DotNetNuke called ActiveSocial. It's priced right ($500) and has more than the features I need but lacks some. I wonder if anyone here has ever used AS before. Is DNN easy to extend so I can add Google Maps functionality and such? It doesn't say anywhere on snowcovered (the vendor that sells AS) if AS comes with the source. If it didn't, then I might be screwed because I wouldn't be able to integrate the functionality I want.
I went through this exercise about 15 months ago when I built a SNS for a client. Hoping to find some basic framework for Friends, Chat, Profiles etc I was pretty disappointed.
That said, in retrospect I wish rather than building one that we would have purchased a solution like Community Server. As with most projects I looked at the problem scope with beer, no strike that, ambitious goggles on and the level of work to cover all the edge cases was more than I imagined.
Tread careful my friend, tread careful.
I think this is what you're looking for. Kigg is an open source ASP.NET MVC app that would be a good starting point for what you want. Here is the url: http://www.codeplex.com/Kigg
You can also find a site that is using this here: http://dotnetshoutout.com/
At the very least you will learn the ASP.NET MVC framework which is fantastic.
While not exactly intended to be used for social networking sites, both of these frameworks can help you so you don't have to start from scratch:
DotNetNuke: http://www.dotnetnuke.com/
Umbraco: http://umbraco.org/
Also, for an out of the box solution (no code involved) you could always try this: http://www.ning.com/
Good luck!
