Facebook released today (Feb 29) Timeline for Pages. It provides private messaging between fans and the organization.
Is there a way to access these messages?
Well, as of March 29 this API became available. It's working well. Check FB's API documentation.

I've searched through all of the documentation from Instagram's APIs and I can't find a single mention about posting unfollow / follow. If you could point me in the right direction I would very much appreciate it. Thank you.
This endpoint was available I believe through the legacy Instagram API. However, that was decommissioned a year and a half ago. The replacement Instagram Graph API did bring over these endpoints but they have been decommissioned as well. So I'm afraid it's not possible to follow or unfollow an account using the Instagram API.

Instagram API Platform: Deprecation
We will be deprecating the older Instagram API Platform in three phases with complete deprecation occurring in early 2020.
The following will be available until July 31, 2018:
Follower List - to read the list of followers and followed-by users
Relationships - to follow and unfollow accounts on a user’s behalf
Commenting on Public Content - to post and delete comments on a user’s behalf on public media
We have built an .net application which gets Facebook posts by searching for the specific hash tags we have given.
As Facebook is changing its rules from April 30 2015, which only allows v2.0 or later calls. Is there a way from v2.0 to search for Facebook posts?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
No, this is no longer possible since v2.0, because:
Public Post search is no longer available

Facebook recently added a new feature which allows bookmarking interesting links for reading later. Saved links are available in „Save” tab.
Is there any Facebook API (e.g. Graph API) for retrieving these saved items ?
The documentation of the API endpoint to access Facebook "Saved Links" used to be available at the following link:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/opengraph/action-type/save.saves/
However, Facebook removed the support for it around February/March 2016.
Answer edited on Apr, 15 2016. Thanks for the comments.
No such API feature exists.
If this will change it will be announced here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/changelog
I've been writing a small Facebook app which uses the unified_thread table using FQL. According to the documentation at the unified_thread documentation page the new messaging system is coming to all users. Where is it announced when that will happen? Is there some canonical resource by Facebook where they have some form of roadmap?
It looks like your wish will be granted on Nov 30th, 2011: Steps Toward the New Messaging System

Facebook has credits / payment feature, but I can't seem to find a payment API.
How does my app give out credits or receives credits from its users?
Facebook Credits is still in beta phase, so I guess they are keeping it a secret for now. Facebook is looking for developers to take part in the beta program though.
Documentation is available:
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/creditsapi
but you still have to request beta access at the moment (26 Oct 2010)
Today, we’re announcing a significant expansion in the number of developers that can be part of Facebook Credits, the virtual currency used in games and applications on Facebook. And working with our friends at PlaySpan, we plan to add more than 20 new ways for people to pay for Facebook Credits in the coming months.
