I must have read just about everything available on the net for a decent example of using the Google API's in ASP.Net MVC 3 or for that matter any .net web server application.
Since google strongly advises using their client libraries for OAuth 2.0 I've spent the better part of the day reading the docs looking for a sample for .net web server application.
And I've found squat (except for a number of unanswered questions on SO and elsewhere).
The documentation for the WebServer applications
The documentation for the .net client library
What I want to do is allow authenticated users of my website to import contacts from google. ie use OAuth2.0 to access google contacts api.
So my questions are:
Should I even use the google client libraries for OAuth2.0 in my Asp.Net MVC 3 application.
Is there a decent sample I can use.
Can someone post a good sample.

I am looking at creating a basic Rails application that can access this API http://instructure.github.io/ I have had a look through the documentation but cannot find anywhere I can get to grips with unfortunately. I am fairly new to Rails but I understand the basics. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good tutorial or resources where I can learn how to build a rails application that calls a third party API and displays the results. I know Canvas Instructure API is via JSON requests. Any information would be very much appreciated.
I would like to note that it uses Oauth2 for API authorisation for requests.
I would take a look at Httparty gem, It should do everything you need to consume an api
Here's an example of using omniauth and Httparty to connect to a 3rd party api
YOu can also take a look at oauth-plugin - https://github.com/pelle/oauth-plugin - which gives you both OAuth Provider and Consumer. Implementing the consumer should give you what you need.

I have to develop an application similar to Google Docs with some special requirements: to be a SaaS and to work both online and offline?
Which technologies would be the most suitable? Is ASP.NET MVC compatible with this kind of demands? If so, how is it possible to make it work offline?
Is ASP.NET MVC compatible with this kind of demands?
You can use any server side technology you like.
If so, how is it possible to make it work offline?
With a combination of Cache Manifest (note: limited browser support) to make the files for the application available offline and a Web Storage technology (Note: reasonable browser support) to store the data (which you'll have to sync with the server when it becomes available if it want it shared between systems/browsers).

I am looking at the posibility of integrating a third party component into our MVC-based site. We have an MVC-based portal that is hosted in the cloud and need document handling and search features without taking the full job of implementing it from scratch.
Is there any other third party systems that are cloud compatible and provide an API for handling documents, security and full text search?
Orchard is a free, open source, community-focused project aimed at delivering applications and reusable components on the ASP.NET platform.
In the near term, the Orchard project is focused on delivering a
.NET-based CMS application that will allow users to rapidly create content-driven Websites, and an extensibility framework that will
allow developers and customizers to provide additional functionality
through module extensions and themes.
It is built using of ASP.NET MVC as a foundation
It can run in the cloud: http://docs.orchardproject.net/Documentation/Deploying-Orchard-to-Windows-Azure
It can do text search.
Check out Apache Solr. Solr adds some incredible support on top of Lucene (java). I know it seems as though you want a .net solution, however I will say that solr has a fantastic HTTP interface, so you can easily connect it via services.

I am trying to write applications for iPad which take advantage of web services. I know the concept of a web service and have used it in C#/.NET. I need to know how to do this on an iPad. Can anyone recommend a good book or reading material on webservices for iOS?
If you're using iOS frameworks, your solution will involve using NSURLConnection or NSRLRequest. In-depth Apple documentation can be found here. In my experience, you want to wrap those API calls in your own client request that can build data transfer objects your application logic understands.
If you're looking at 3rd party frameworks to access a RESTful web service, take a peek at this answer for a number of iOS framework options.
For SOAP services, take a look here.
As for processing the data, it depends what kind of data your web service produces. There are several frameworks and libraries that can make it easy to consume XML or JSON.
In my experience, the best book on the subject is Advanced iOS Programming.
