I am looking at building a LinkedIn application and i am a little bit flustered because of the paucity of Information out there. Here are things i need to know:
1)
Is there any LinkedIn AppStore or a central place where i can test out applications? The link i could find is http://www.linkedin.com/static?key=application_directory but i dont want to believe there is only 18 Applications on the LinkedIn platform
2)
How do i host or integrate my Application into LinkedIn. The only option i can see when it comes to using LinkedIn API is to have the application on your domain and call the API from your APP. But is there a possibility of having the Application have a linkedIn domain? like we have on Facebook?
Thanks
Those applications you link are indeed the only ones that have been approved for use on the LinkedIn.com site - there is no open development system to build apps on LinkedIn.
To build applications against the LinkedIn platform, you would use the JavaScript or REST APIs, and you would need to host the application on your own domain.

We are developing a web application which is hosted in IIS with windows authentication enabled. (The authentication is done through Active directory)
The application is designed as a collaborative tool where all the organization users can interact with each others.

Good evening, I want to create a RESTful API with ASP.NET Web API 2 and host it in Windows Azure. For this API I will need to have registered users and I want them to register via Facebook or Twitter. The question is, which would be the easiest way to have OAUTH2 integrated with the API in Azure? I saw that it has the ASP.NET Identity integrated with it but I don't know how nicely it works in azure, are there any other options?
Thanks in advance!
Your best bet is to leverage Access Control Services (ACS) and OAuth2. This article has a great description of how to set it up: http://www.developerfusion.com/article/147914/protecting-your-aspnet-web-api-using-oauth2-and-the-windows-azure-access-control-service/
Note: Just learning Identity so please bear with me. We are developing a Web API for use by apps that we build and apps built by our clients. I have the local engine working the way I want so that any "client" app could use our API to login in.
What I cannot seem to get to work is external login providers without being presented with a login page. Is it possible to converse with them in API only mode or is this type of setup out of the question? What I don't want our client's apps to have to do is know how to manage the logins to use our API.
I know this may be similar to a few other questions out there but I do not see one with our particular need.
Thanks,

If your api needs to have authentication in place then you would need some kind of registering done by the consumers of your api. But you could provide seamless ways to integrate login by not providing any additional form requirements from the client application. Popular login methods today are using social networks. Web api does support out of the box support for integrating with the social networks.
You can find a sample for using facebook authentication here

Since you mentioned Asp.net so I am assuming you are talking about windows platform. I am using Openfire for XMPP messaging since last 5-6 years now and it is very easy to use and stable XMPP server. You can install it on your server and then configure Converse.js and XAMPP in conjunction with it to get web client chat feature. I referred this link to configure XAMPP along with Openfire: https://community.igniterealtime.org/docs/DOC-2954
Basic steps:
1. Install Openfire
2. Install XAMPP and configure as given in above link
3. Configure Converse.js in Asp.net application
Is there a way to post data from a ASP.NET application to Google+ account of a user. Does Google+ provide any API for the .NET platform?
Since the Google+ API is now available, you can use the Google APIs Client Library for .NET to access the API.
As of 9-7-2011, the API has not yet been released:

There is, however, a platform preview for which you can sign up:

Here is some discussion of the issue as well as some unofficial (that is to say, they will break eventually) APIs:
