I am trying to build a windows phone application which can synchronize my events on the phone with online service. I can use an api for interacting with the online service.
I am having difficulty understanding how I can synchronize my phone events with the online service.
Can some one please guide me as to how I could go about working on it or some helpful link where I can understand how this actually works??
This is for a school project and for non-commercial purpose only.
Thank you
All help appreciated!!!

Windows Phone 7 does not currently provide 3rd party apps with access to information stored in the calendar or contacts. This may be included in Mango, which is set to be released fall/winter 2011, but as of right now you cannot access the events from a custom application.

I am starting to develop an app with a friend of mine and at its core it needs to sync accounts and data from utility providers (think energy, wifi, etc.). How do we start with that? Do we need to reach out to the utility providers to access their API's? Where should we start?
I am not a programmer, I want to know who I need to reach out to in order to support my partner.
I can clarify anything if necessary, thank you!
I have a web app where if a user signs up, a notification is sent to the slack channel. I want to achieve the same thing in skype for business but I cant find any good resources. Will it be possible to do this?
That isn´t so easy to answer as Skype for Business (=SfB) is a very complex product and you didn´t outlined a real use case (e.g. will a group of persons addressed or only one person, what should happen if nobody is in, ...).
As a starting point you could build something on your own via the Skype for Business Web SDK which fits your needs. If you search for that via Google you can find various article which gives you some examples which can be adjusted (for example here).
You might also wish to try to find a old version from the "Lync Presence & Chat Widget" as it became a commercial product.
If you wish to get a commercial "plugin" you can try to use:
OrbitOne - Lync Presence & Chat Widgets see here (Demo here)
Vytru Live Web Chat Widget for Lync/Skype for Business

I m trying to develop an android application which takes recipe name from user and internally search recipe of entered name from Google custom search and give it user.
But i do not understand how to access Google custom search from my android application. Please help me to get out of this.
Thank u in advance.
Google provides a JSON/ATOM Custom Search API. That would be the way to go about integrating the Search into your Android application.
To make the integration processes easier into any client application and avoid doing all the REST stuff in your code, there are a number of client libraries made available. Take a look.
Be aware of the pricing i.e. free quota v/s billing.
What language would a developer use to develop an application for the Bloomberg App Portal as described here: Bloomberg press room
To be specific, I'm not asking on how to integrate with BBG on the desktop via the Anywhere APIs. This is a question deploying a custom "app" within the terminal.
Perhaps a follow up question that should be asked separate is, has any small firm successfully deployed an app there?
According to this link singledealerplatforms.org/tag/bloomberg-app-portal/ the language used is C#,
For $500 per month, developers will be given access to a Software Development Kit (SDK), documentation, data feed, up to 3 Terminals and developer support
Apps are subject to code review before being accepted onto the Portal
Apps are written in C# using .NET and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)
According to this link www.moneymanagement.com.au/product-news/2012/bloomberg-app-portal-financial-services-software the App Portal is designed so that a PhD student could publish their own app - they may be speaking of a real case here.
If you do some more searching, you'll come across a couple of apps that look like they're from small/new companies, why not email them and ask? http://www.percentageit.com/ for example is a small company that develops apps for third parties as well, http://www.bbapplabs.com is similar for Asia
I am actually developping an application for bloomberg App Portal.
You have to use C# and WPF for programming (like for windows8 app)
Today there is 70 apps available, most of them are from small/middle firm.
Bloomberg provides 3 developing teminal for 2500$/month (30000/year), it also authorize to have up to 25 users. Then you have to pay 1000$ by 100 additional users
This cost can be prohibitive. I think it is why there is only 70apps after 1.5 year.
I am working on a solution to a problem at work where we can't tell if someone is on the phone or just sitting there. We use Microsoft Lync to place our calls and I was hoping to be able to add a bit of code to an existing .net application to show the presence of the person logged into the machine. That info will send that out via USB to an indicator light I previously built.
So basically I am trying to create a .net version of those 'ON AIR' lights you see at radio stations.
I have been searching for the last few days and haven't found a solution. I also downloaded the Microsoft Lync Controls SDK, but no luck with that either.
The following site provides a couple of ways of getting the user availability: http://rcosic.wordpress.com/2011/11/17/availability-presence-in-lync-client/
You may also be interested in the BusyLight if you still haven't implemented this solution. It's a USB light which shows your presence, as you describe.
There's a video demo of it in action here.
