if we want to develop facebook appliations, we need to invite people through their authentication credentilas, for that how to write a logic or code block in dotnet.., i mean abt to contact their servers and all..
How can we write a program to download the addressbook from famous mail services like yahoo, hotmail and gmail
I use to do HTML scraping in .NET, I have no clue what Facebook uses or if they'd allow such a thing, but you'd take the user's credentials and simulate logging in as the user and scraping the contact pages for data. You'll need to look up a bit on page scraping, too long to post about it here.
Other than that, I have no clue as to APIs that Yahoo and other companies may provide for such access.
Reply:Look into the APIs for the different applications like GMail and Yahoo Mail. I would strongly suggest coming up with a better methodology, however - I definitly would not trust entering my email password into some random facebook app, and any one who does is just foolish. Instead, consider asking users to upload CSV files of their contacts list, or the like.
