Question

Dear,

I am a beginner web developer, i want to create a c# process that retrieve posts details (title, image, summary, post URL, publish date, comments, share, likes, ...) from different blogs or website URLs (WordPress blogs, blogger blogs or specific websites or blog URL) and save them to my database using entity framework or linq to sql class.

I searched alots online and all what i found that there are specific API like WordPress API, blogger API ...  that retrieve posts as json result when putting the URL (domain) for a blog or website in the api specific link, but this can't help for specific websites and blogs to find latest, oldest and updated posts details.

kindly help me if you have any idea, tutorial, document or any link of how and what materials to learn to do this.

thank you in advance

If you are having same problem with Yahoo also, it must be your Internet is very slow. We are working on a lighter version of the site that will be launched by Jan 01.

@Mahesh: No mahesh i can't doubt my internet connection as it's doing pretty well. My internet connection speed is 2Mbps. I am able to see videos without any buffering. May be i need to wait till you launch lighter version i guess if there isn't any solution for this. Why i can't doubt my internet connection is, previously i was with some other service provider as i shifted to some other house along with that i changed my service provider as well but the problem still exits.

@Sam: I opted for 4Mbps connection but when I checked it using Mcafee speedometer it was past 1Mbps. I doubt that is the not the problem with speed, there is something else happening. I will try calling tech support of my service provider.

Do you know how fast your connection is? There are many ways to test connection speed. One of them is the DSLReports.com Speed Test but there are vary many others.
