BackTypeSharp is a C# library that allows querying of BackType's API (www.backtype.com)

It was written in a fluent manner (or attempted) so that you can easily query BackType for information.

I started BackTypeSharp for a personal project and decided it could be useful to others and so I've decided to share it on CodePlex. I first saw BackType being used on Mashable.com. If you go to any story on Mashable's website and scroll towards the bottom you'll see a section called "Reactions" with comments from people posted via "BackType." A little research on BackType and a few days later I thought the "Reactions" was a neat idea and wanted to implement it into my own project. Since there were no libraries written in .NET to support interaction with the BackType API I created one.

I've used TweetSharp quite a bit and really enjoyed the fluent manner in which you execute requests so I attempted to model BackTypeSharp in a similar manner.

BackTypeSharp is far from a complete library and I will continue to work on it over time. If you'd like to help please feel free to contact me. There are some "tests" in the solution but I have no experience writing unit tests or doing TDD so I wouldn't rely on them. I would love to have someone who is experienced with writing unit tests help. If anything the test project shows how to query and get results using the library.
