We're trying to find a way to retrieve information about when an employee is currently on the phone.
The phones we use are Cisco IP Phone 7945 brand with CallManager 7.1.30000-1 and we were wanting to integrate it with asp.net. We want to be able to know when an employee's phone is off the hook.
We have gone to http://developer.cisco.com, but we are uncertain on which API or SDK to use. We have tried AXL but it doesn't do what we're looking for.
Is TAPI/JTAPI the way to go? Is there an example to get started for .NET?
I don't know what TAPI/JTAPI can do, but we just query the callmanager database directly to get that kind of information.

I have a wish to somehow create on front-end a page with webmail client, to access up to 20+ email accounts, also send/recieve emails, etc. Like Thunderbird, or any other email client but on web. I didn't found any plugin for this purpose and maybe you have some ideas how to do that? Thanks!
this might be extremely hard if you wish to build from scratch. My best guess is that you need to find an open-source email client and integrate it within the WP framework. But that also will be hard to do, finding an open-source email client will save a ton and tons of time to build a strong email client but you're going to have to customize its structure to make compatible with WordPress environment, like database calls, authentication and more.
Still, you can always build a simple email client that checks the client email server grab his emails, and send an email if they want to, this is possible using the POP, SMTP PHP functionalities that allows you to talk to the email server.

My boss has charged me with the task of finding how to integrate WeChat into our photobooth's "Total Share" section.
Our photobooths work under windows and their software is a mix of Java and a PHP web API installed locally, that then connects to a web service.
The intention is to give the user the option to, when their picture is done, get a copy of it via WeChat (I guess that by introducing it's phone number)
Through my searches I've found a WeChat JS-SDK, but that seems to connect sites you are watching on your phone with your actual WeChat app so it doesn't work in my case.
The other source I have found is the Official Account Admin Platform, but I'm not really sure if this would allow me to do what I need. As far as I've seen, the Official Account can send messages in response to a trigger (that would work for me, send a message when the user clicks on the button), but it also seems to need that they "subscribe" (in a way) to the Official Account, and secondly I'm not sure how can this be automatized.
Especial mention:
I'm a junior developer, so API integration is a bridge I haven't crossed yet, and as such I'm utterly lost.
Is it possible to get the functionality I require? If so, what are the steps to do it?
You don't need to make a fully fleshed tutorial to write an answer, just knowing in what direction should I go, and maybe some possible caveats that more experienced developers may be able to foresee, would be great.
Thanks.
We are currently evaluating wearables for a new product. The Sony SmartBand Talk SWR30 seems to be the perfect fit for our needs.
Unfortunately we could not figure out how to program custom apps for the SmartBand Talk SWR30. More specifically we need to control telephone calls from the watch (start preconfigured calls, stop the call after some time and start another call).
Is there a way to achieve this with the SmartBand Talk SWR30?
SmartBand Talk SDK has not been published publicly yet. It is available only to partners.
For details regarding partnership, you can contact through email.
You can find email address under "Other Developer Questions" section on this page:

Im newbie from asterisk but professional in PHP programming!, so
I want to call mobile number in my users panel in web. exactly when user click on a number, connect to asterisk and call selected mobile number via specified internal extension.
is there any solution? I don't know about using any softphone or not. I don't want to use any client softphone if possible.
edit:
I used some php code with AMI and shift8, but my problem is when user calling and how can user talk with another without softphone?
You can use various API's to place a phone call. As you already learned about the AMI you might find http://code.google.com/p/asterisk-php-api/ helpful.
Regarding your phone question: placing a phone call using the AMI Originate Action will first ring the extension's associated phone and when you take of the hook, asterisk will dial the target number. Therefore it's not importent which kind of phone (hard- or softphone, brand, ...) you're using. As long as the phone is registered in asterisk and bound to a certain extension it'll work.
If I understand correctly, the doddle web phone or webrtc may be an example of what your looking for.
We have a Microsoft web stack web site, we have a members database.
We want to start doing mass-emails to our (opted in) membership.
I don't particularly want to re-invent the wheel with a system for having a web form submit and then mass send emails looping through thousands of records without timing out and overloading the server...
I guess I'm looking for something like Mailman, that can run on a windows (ASP/ASP.NET + SQL Server) backend and do the work for me, with suitable APIs to manage the subscriber list and send emails to that list.
Suggestions please?
I agree with acrosman, third parties that host email lists are a good way to go. A very reliable site I've found for mass emailing is http://mailing-list-services.com/. They do a good job to make sure their servers are never black listed or marked as spam. I've used them a few times, their website design blows, but their service is awsome. The Lyris Listmanager software they use has a pretty extensive API.
Advanced Intellect has some great tools, like aspNetEmail and ListNanny.
MaxBulkMailer might be a solution for you? The organisation I work for uses it to connect to www.authsmtp.com which gives us credits for a certain number of e-mails that we can send per month. You can import a spreadsheet of your mailing list or tap straight into a SQL server and pull the names and addresses. Available for Mac and Windows.
(not a sales pitch)
my company offers mail manager, but it's a hosted service. It has a full API though.

Unless your running a business that specializes in email, I'd suggest you find a hosted solution. There are 100's of little issues that come up when you run your own service over time. A hosted solution can save you lots of time and effort (and therefore money).
