I'm working on a small site for my university. The requirements include the ability for our users to authenticate with their LinkedIn accounts. I know Facebook and Twitter have such capability, but what about LinkedIn? I'll be doing this in .NET, is there a native SDK?
Thanks,
Sara

I wanted to integrate social websites using their API. Is there any free API which ease this work? Like Facebook, LinkedIn and Google.
My intention is to give the user the opportunity to login/register through these websites to

I believe both of those providers support OpenID. While some people out there bash it, I know other sites that have used it with great success.
I would start by finding a good OpenID provider for .NET and go from there.
I would recommend your first step would be to look into authenticating using OpenID (and integrating with WIF) as both Google and Facebook provide OpenID

For this you use Twitter's OAuth authentication framework. It's used so that users don't have to directly enter their user + password into your site. (I assume you know how the front-end to that works already.)
You can use this little example to use OAuth from .NET - it is built for ASP.NET. (The demo the guy provides is My Tweeple.)
Twitter actually includes instructions for using OAuth to make a Facebook Connect-style system.
