Is there any way to register for Google Apps remotely (i.e. with an API), if I already own the domain and can manage DNS?
Yes if you are an ISP or large enough. Given that you're asking here, instead of talking to your Google Enterprise rep, chances are this is a "no".

I'm looking and i can't find it.
Possible to configure a chromebook to allow users access to ONLY a handful of domains like gmail, google, youtube, linkedin, etc? not deny but allow only... if so, where/how? version specific? Any hacks or work around?
If not, any good comcast fiber internet compatible wifi routers out there with built in firewall that can do this well.. maybe by mac addresses? that log? and can chromebook users hack/change their mac address without rooting to hack around this restriction? Can Windows 10 users hack their way around this?
To set policies for the Chromebook itself you'd need to enroll it on an Enterprise domain:

I assume you're not an admin for such a domain however. If you want set policies for your kids you can use parental controls on their Google Accounts:

You can also control which accounts are allowed on your Chromebook:

I am creating the room mailbox in exchange server. and sync the exchange into iphone is also done. But how to get the rooms name and timing in iphone. is there any api or frameworks ?
Thanks
Raj
The Exchange Web Services API can be used to determine room availability:

Since it is a web service, in theory it should be caller agnostic though I don't know how authentication from the iPhone will be handled. I have only used EWS from Windows-based applications, but I know that the iPhone supports certificates and obviously it is capable of connecting to Exchange.
I noticed one application on app store recently named onavo which access internet connection usage from other applications on iPhone like safari, facebook, youtube, etc. Is there any API available for this. How they have implemented it. Curious to know about it.
I've found the answer on Quora. As follow:

Roi Tiger, CTO of Onavo
Hi, I'm the CTO of Onavo, thank you for checking out our service. After installing Onavo you are prompted to install a configuration profile which allows the data to be redirected through Onavo's servers using a proxy server settings.
Configuration profile installation does not require any private API access in the iOS platform.
Another answer:
http://www.quora.com/How-does-Onavo-manage-to-compress-data-traffic
They're not monitoring the apps’ data usage on the phone itself. It looks like Onavo sets up a proxy on the phone (probably via a configuration profile) so that your data traffic goes through their servers, so monitoring which sites that traffic is going through is trivial on their end. From their privacy policy (emphasis mine):
Onavo provides services for reducing data usage of certain mobile phones. To benefit from the Services, your access to the Internet through your mobile phone will be routed through Onavo's servers, which strive to reduce the volume of your downloads, and potentially your uploads as well.
Am wondering if anyone can suggest the right technology required to create a web-messenger service similar to Meebo i.e. it should be able to connect to various services like Facebook, Gtalk etc. I know they are all Jabber compatible. Am wondering if anyone can suggest a technology that is required to connect to these servers? Also, is there an API or a service available instead of re-writing the wheel?
What about Google AppEngine?
With the introduction of the XMPP
service to App Engine, it's now
possible to write an App Engine app
that communicates with users - or even
other applications - over XMPP,
otherwise known as Jabber or Google
Talk.
I've seen some custom libraries for sending e-mails, but are there any available for receiving them? I know of numerous ones that are available for the mac, but not for the iPhone - and I mean, MobileMail.app must do it somehow :P
Has anyone got any ideas on this?
You can port most any POP or IMAP client code that can run inside a single process... however an app on a stock OS device is sandboxed off from the email credentials that a user enters in the Settings app, so an app will have to ask for its own email login credentials and do its own email protocol handling.
Apple also seems to reserve the right to reject apps that merely duplicate the built-in Mail app.
I'm a little confused as to what you're trying to achieve. DO you mean that you want the app to accept SMTP traffic and act as an MTA - ie receive mail? Or did you merely want to connect to an MTA and operate on the messages stored elsewhere.
If the latter then Hotpaws's answer is a good one.
If the former then your bigger problems are going to be in terms of maintaining MX records. Perhaps a mediated service in which you have a store and forward MTA on a static IP that forwards on connection to the app. MTAs should still support this as that's how MTAs used to operate back when entire domains were connected via occasional dial-up.
Wow - I'm old.
