I've been developing application for Iphone and now I want to try to create appplication like social bookmarking but I didn't really find any help on the net.
I will have a create a login/pass, retrieve data and display them.
So I want to know what do I have to use to implement all of that for any social bookmarking website.
If you have suggestion, idea, tutorial, you are welcome.
thanks,
Most of the major social networking sites have API's for coding against their services, for instance Facebook and Twitter.
I'm sure there are other API's available, so it's just a matter og Googling for them using something like " social-network-name API developer" as serch criteria.

Wouldn't it be easier to integrate with an existing one?

I am new to iPhone development. I’ve added Facebook sharing functionality and I also want to add the Like feature from Facebook. I’ve followed one of the examples; it works if Facebook sharing functionality hasn’t been implemented, because some files create contradiction (specifically FBRequest.h). But I want to add both sets of functionality at the same time. Any suggestions?
If you are new then its not a issue. Everybody have same brain. So its not a big issue. Check
this link: http://www.raywenderlich.com/1626/how-to-post-to-a-users-wall-upload-photos-and-add-a-like-button-from-your-iphone-app
First of all understand it then implement it. I know you will surely implement this in Your
App. Best of luck.
In my app I want to provide a strong integration with social network and web services (facebook, flickr, youtube, picasa, dropbox… and more!).
To implement such integration, I'm currently using several libraries like Facebook iOS SDK, objectiveFlickr and so on.
The problem is that I have several dependencies and I created my own wrappers in order to use the same interfaces in my classes, and I fear that the things are going to become more complex and hard to manage as soon I integrate new services.
So, my question is: is there a framework with an high level of abstraction that make easy (or less painful) these integrations?
ps: ShareKit it's far away from what I need! :P
You need ShareKit: http://getsharekit.com/
#daveoncode you might try Socialize: http://www.GetSocialize.com (full feature list at http://go.GetSocialize.com/features). Right now Socialize supports Facebook, with Twitter coming this month and Google+ next, but it the SDKs are open source so you can always offload to Socialize what it can do and then handle the rest yourself. Let me know if that's helpful.

Do you have any idea if there is available an official DeviantArt API or SDK for iPhone?
I am building an application and I would like to integrate a search through Deviant Art public feed.
Is this possible?
There is no official API or SDK for the iPhone. From reviewing their forums, it has been suggested many times, but so far has not been provided.
There's something called DiFi: http://www.botdom.com/documentation/DiFi that may be worth a try.
If that doesn't work, you could try interacting with the web site using a hidden UIWebView by using the – stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString: method. I've used this in the past to interact with web sites that do not provide an API.
That's a wonderful idea, Andrei, but I don't think deviantart has any APIs available. However, what you want to do might not be impossible, you would just need to build your app to work with deviantart's website.
I've been researching the latest ways to integrate Twitter into my app and it appears the best (most painless) approach is to use the MGTwitterEngine, and the best tutorial I could find to implement this is a 3-part series. If all I need to do is allow the user to login to their twitter account and post a single tweet that's always the same, is there an easier way to do that than following the tutorial I linked to?
Thanks so much for your wisdom. If the alternatives aren't much easier, no problem, I'm not so lazy that I can't follow a tutorial, I was just wondering if there's a quicker way that I didn't see.
Create a button that opens a UIWebView when clicked. Build the URL using details here: http://twitter.com/about/resources/tweetbutton. Simple - about 10 lines of code.
I'm a big fan of st3fan's (Stefan Arentz) https://github.com/st3fan/iphone-twitter project. It's very easy to integrate and includes whole views that you can just use, easily customizable too.
Plan your Twitter implementation ahead - with an iPhone project you will want to use xAuth authentication which does not require a round trip to the web browser.* You have to first register your app and then request permission for your application to use this method. Check the Twitter developer pages for more details.
*or not. But I hate leaving the app to post tweets.
I am thinking about developing a fairly simple facebook application which i have modelled the database in access.
I have web space and mySQL databases available, but I was wondering if anyone could point me towards any guides for facebook development? I had a search a while back, but they all seemed rather out of date. Anyone know where I should start with this?
I don't want to really share exactly what my idea is, but its a rating system for a particular set of products.
I haven't done much PHP before, only edited my wordpress template, and I do know enough SQL I hope.

No need to go through a bunch of small tutorials when you can find out just about all you can do through this book. It seems to be lacking on building a facebook app with an iframe though.
