[Shubhajyoti Ghosh]

What i'm looking for is to build a C# component that i can reference
in my projects. I would add the component as a reference to whatever
app i'm building. The C# component for now, could have a single
method.

Here is a suggested method signature.

GetContacts(string socialnetworkname, string username, string
password)
{
implement code;
}

Inside this method, you would use the "socialnetworkname" to determine
which social network site to connect to. you would then user the
"username/password" to authenticate with that service using the
OpenSocial Javascrpt API, and then you would call the appropriate
method to return that persons contacts from that site. The return
object would have a list of "people" objects, with properties for
first name, last name, email, etc, etc...as much info as I could
retrieve using the javascript api.

Welcome Suggestion

Take a look at http://www.codeplex.com/OpenSocial it is very buggy at the moment and template is for VS2005.

Shubhajyoti, you should study the OAuth spec that will be used so that
users are not giving up their MySpace, Orkut, Hi5, and ning passwords.

instead they will exchange a token with you, and in theory should be
able to manage that token on their side.

i do not believe that ASP is designed to directly target the XML files
that you need to render the views.

C# and VB.net, however, are very good at webservices. I think you
will need to get your hand dirty right now and write the views by
hand, and write the JS code by hand that connects your C# and the
sites code which is all based on web requests through JS.

In the future, there will be some RestAPI, but from what I know, the
RestAPI is not setup on most networks, your mileage might really vary
here until the OAuth stuff stabilizes.

[Shubhajyoti Ghosh]

Tell me clearly, that is it possible or not? Coz It seems to me a
contact grabber from Mail ID, same kind of things, instated of a mail
id it is a Social network site. Am I right or wrong ?

you are a software guy, you know better than to ask if something is
possible vs. impossible.

you can do anything you want with asp.net, or a microsoft product, it
just has to conform to the spec.

right now the restAPIs are not ready, so the only way for you to get
"opensocial data" is through the javascript library.
