I saw message in Gmail, that says that The 'Add any gadget by URL' Lab is being deprecated.
I use this feature, and I writing my own Gmail gadget, this feature will be deleted, or not, can I use my gadgets after this, or all will be deleted?
All gadgets added using that will be deleted. I just lost my google docs gadget!

I have gone through the API documentation on the Dropbox website, and have found the section that relates to Paper, however I don't see a way to work with the TODO's for a document or a user.
Is this something that is not yet supported or have I missed it ?
The Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to interact with Paper to-do items unfortunately, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.
I know that Airbnb haven't opened their API to the public yet, but searching the internet I found some people are using it.
I tried to contact them, and also Airbnb, but without any answers.
Does anyone here knows any contact email, page, or phone number that I can refer to?
I have read here that you can find your API key by looking at the requests that AirBNB uses in their own website. So use the web-developer tools in chrome, or firefox, or firebug in firefox and search trough the requests in the network panel until you find the key being used in any JSON request. Some urls contain this key param, you copy that :) works for me!
Oh BTW, i'd like to remind you that the API is currently not officially released to fetch data in the background while you are logged in. When you use this key, they'll know your identity. You might get blocked or at least warned by AirBNB for using their API while you are maybe not allowed to. Read their terms & conditions to make sure. I am not taking any responsibility, of course ;)
You can now find your API key on the meta tags of the source code when logged in to your dashboard. Search for canonical_host and you will find:
{"canonical_host":"www.airbnb.com","api_config":{"key":"<your-api-key>"}
Just to update this set of answers, the api is on the following address but you need to request access first.
https://www.airbnb.com/partner
It offers an FAQ that informs you about the process and it will always be updated
As far as I can tell, they have shut down this service as of today.
"Unfortunately, this is no longer available" will be what the API returns.
EDIT:
It started working again after a few days. Very odd, maybe an internal problem, or we were rate limited or something.
Log into Airbnb.com, open up the web developer console, go to the network tab, filter by type json, and look at the url and find "client_id".

There are a few ways in which 3rd-party developers may offer this functionality -- regardless of the manner selected, it is up to the 3rd-party vendor to decide how much (if any) of these methods are implemented and documented in the public domain as accessible to other applications or users. Ultimately you will need to consult the target product's documentation or support channels to determine if such mechanisms exist. While this is neither an exhaustive list, nor it is a list of formally supported mechanisms for achieving your goal, it should give you some insight into what to go research or ask additional questions about:
Option 1: Open URL Schemes
iOS Developers can register their applications to respond to a URL scheme like "tel://" or "sms://" or "http://". If vendors register a URL scheme it will be visible in the app's info.plist. While it won't speak to the format of any parameters you need to pass, the vendor's documentation or support personnel may be able to shine a light on those capabilities. For the HTTP scheme, iOS' MobileSafari.app is registered to respond -- the well-formed NSURL that gets passed to Safari is used as the URL to which Safari navigates when launched.
Option 2: 3rd-party SDK
Other vendors may elect to make an SDK available that you can implement in your app. Google Drive, Dropbox, and Facebook are all great examples. To incorporate these cloud filesystems or social capabilities in your own apps, you can register as a developer and follow install guides to both adopt their SDK and leverage the functionality the SDK provides.
As for your specific question, it appears as though Google's official Gmail app does have an undocumented URL Scheme that the community has discovered, reverse-engineered, and written up. While I VERY STRONGLY DISCOURAGE use of undocumented app capabilities there is nothing preventing you from using this functionality. Keep in mind that because this is undocumented, there is a distinct possibility that the feature could be removed, changed, or otherwise made unavailable in future builds that can leave your own app in a bit of a bind. Furthermore, for those of your users that do not have the Gmail app installed would not be able to leverage this URL Scheme and could lead to a poor user experience. All that said, with the caveats above, Tom Scotland has written up a series of blog posts on the Gmail app's URL scheme and updates to the scheme as a function of the rest of the Google constellation of iOS apps - http://tom.scogland.com/blog/2013/01/29/gmail-url-scheme/
Yahoo Mail is a separate issue -- As far as I can tell, this app offers neither of these access options, however I'll leave the digging as an exercise for the OP.
Again, I encourage you to use MFMailComposerViewController instead of unofficial or unapproved app capabilities so as to limit your own app's exposure to changes beyond your control.
Can we create a Gmail based Event /Boarding Pass Card? What's the format of this Card?
Do we have API to customize this? I only need to update data element. Once the user gets this in Gmail / it will scan this data & will get automatically load in Google Now API.
I am using Android 4.1.2 OS which has Google Search API which has Google Now Widget API with it.Is this do-able option & we have any Google Now API available to do it.
This is a guess
Google Now appears to be an integral part of Glass.
As the nomenclature is similar (cards)
The general shape of the cards look Glass-like
I think it'll be highly probable that they're using google-glass APIs.
Someone ought to get wireshark on the case however.
I'm completely new to using the Google+ apis and the quickstart guides are a bit confusing (i tried the ruby version since i'm probably most familiar there. looks like this: https://github.com/googleplus/gplus-quickstart-ruby)
and I've also looked at the google hangout apis - but those seem to be more for augmenting hangouts (i.e. once you're in a hangout, you'd see the extension, etc. you built).
what I'd like to do is create a place for everyone at my company to log in and see a list of all the permanent hangouts I've created and see who's currently joined that hangout (and which hangouts are available for a meeting).
I'm really sorry for the question but any help getting started is appreciated.
There is currently no API that is officially provided that can tell you what hangouts are currently available. If you are interested in seeing one, you may wish to see if the feature has been requested at https://code.google.com/p/google-plus-platform/issues/list and, if not, request it.
Your question, however, seems to have an assumption that I'm not entirely sure is valid. What do you mean by a "permanent hangout"? In general, hangouts are created and destroyed on an ad-hoc basis (although there are some exceptions).
One of those exceptions are for hangouts that are tied to calendar events (as you note). In these cases, you can use the Calendar API to get the Event resource and get the hangout URL from that (see https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/events and related pages for the API), but it still won't report who is in a hangout at any given time.
One way you can approach what you're doing is to have your website have virtual meeting topics and when someone joins one of these topics, they run an app that reports back to your website the URL of the hangout they're in. Your website can then include this "room information" as associated with the topic on the website for others to see.
