I want to build a web application + web service just to learn some new technologies, and I was thinking about the architecture of the projects in the application. I made an architectural diagram (never made one before), but I was wondering if this is a good one, if it's reusable, and if I should stick with it.
Here is the diagram, waiting for your opinions. Thanks.

Your architecture diagram is in line with a common 3-tier architecture. Some other images providing the same idea.
The seperation between the UI / logic and database is needed as deployment pre-requisite, being able to scale-up and scale-out your application. The seperation between the DAL and the data source is for sake of DB technology abstraction, so you can privide compatibility with diffent DB technologies without your UI and business logic knowing this.
A bit more detailed picutre showing the different components and their placement in the layer pattern. But in principle, all follow the same high-level concept you have drawn.

I'm looking for web services which use GitHub's API to implement additional functionality missing the the GitHub.
Know only two of them:
CodeShelver — A service to bookmark repositories.
Calendar About Nothing — A motivating service which build a calendar of your commitment to opensource.
The question. Are there any other such services?
DocumentUp is a tool to help you build automatic documentation for your GitHub projects
GitHub Markdown Preview is a pretty useful little app to instantly preview what your GitHub flavored Markdown will look like.
Are those the type of things that you are looking for?

I have a c++ dll running on azure instance role with no problems.
I want the dll to be able to access - read and write - into an Azure Storage account. Specifically, read and write to a storage table.
Is it even possible?
Would appreciate any examples!
thanks,
Nava
Since everything in the Windows Azure Platform is managed through a REST Services, you just need a reliable REST library for C++ to perform what you need.
You can have a look at this and that questions for C++ REST library.
Then you can revice the Azure Storage Services REST API Reference for more details on what you want to achieve.
Hope this helps!
EDIT
Just looked the the POCO libraries, noted they have HTTPRequest and HTTPResponse classes. They, along with X509Certificate should be enough to make a valid REST call to Azure management service.
Not sure if you are still interested in accessing Azure storage with C++, but the Microsoft team has been working on this for the last several months. Check out the Casablanca libraries on DevLabs.

I would like to build a Java EE server, that server many different kind of clients. Most of them are mobile clients, but there also can be a browser application.
I would like to choose between REST and SOAP web services. What do you think? Which is better for this approach? Which is more optimal. I would like to see pros/cons if you know.
What do you think about this?
I would use SOAP, because REST works only over HTTP, while SOAP can use HTTP,TCP, Named pipes, SMTP, MSMQ etc.

Im looking for a web service that can return information on a product. Much like the barcode scanning apps.
Im hoping to implement barcode scanning (which is another question entirely) which will then return a product ID or description which I can then call a webservice for to get details on the product.
Im not interested in product pricing but the actual description or type of product.
Is there anyone that knows of a web service for this kind of information?
It does not nessesarily have to be a web service, im happy to call a website if I can read information from it.
Any other suggestions would be helpful also
This is looking like a good place to start (thanks to emaillenin)

I'm representative of http://aerse.com. You could have a look at Aerse. It provides:
product specifications (CPU, display diagonal, RAM & etc)
product images (raw full-scale and thumbnails)
its free
no limit on requests

I have a website. I was wondering if Apple exposed its Game Center data via a web api. If would be cool if I could show users their Game Center info right in my website!
Let me know folks.
I think it may still be under NDA as I had to log on to look at the game center docs...
I did find a non apple site with a getting started pdf. it contains an interesting passage:
The data maintained by the Game Center
service should only be used to provide
the services and functionality
necessary for your application, and
may not be transferred or copied to
other services. For example, you may
not download Game Center leaderboard
data to post on your app website or to
another service.
