Posting a Status Update to Social Networks Using the ShareStatusTask
The share status task is used to enable the user to post a status update to one or more social networks. The ShareStatusTask contains a single Status property of type string. When the Show method is called, the ShareStatusTask presents the built-in message sharing app. See the following excerpt:
ShareStatusTask task = new ShareStatusTask();task.Status = "I'm loving the new features of the Windows Phone API!";task.Show();
The sample for the ShareStatusTask is a page called ShareStatusTaskView, which allows the user to enter some text and to launch the ShareLinkTask via an application bar button.
