I wanted a quick and easy way to get a short URL for my blog posts, so I used the bit.ly API and created a simple function in C# to handle it. With this function, you can easily shorten any URL by passing it as an argument.

I was able to display my Flickr photos on a web page using the Flickr.Net API, which involved creating a repeater in an ASP.NET page and writing some backend code in C#. The end result is a simple paginated photo gallery that retrieves photos from Flickr based on user ID and other parameters.
