we are thinking in using Shippo for our shipping but would like to have the shipping rates of Shippo at the product page and also the checkout.
How could we do that or what alternatives do we have?
thanks
You may find either of the following plugins for Magento 1.9 helpful for getting rates for multiple carriers through Shippo:
https://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/shippo.html -- the official Shippo Magento App
https://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/offer-cheap-shipping-rates-to-your-customers.html -- we know the Build-A-Team team so free to email Shippo's support team if you'd like to get in touch, and we can point you the right way.

I wanted to add Facebook and Google login to the customer login page or in sign up in Shopify so tell me how I can implement it?
I will assume by the type question you made that you are new to programing. I apologize if that is a wrong assumption.
Do you want to implement it? Does that mean you want to develop your own plugin from scratch? Then you have to learn how to make Shopify extensions first. You should probably start with "hello world" types of example and only then try to approach something complex like 0auth for customers.
If you want it just working here somebody's else implementation:
https://apps.shopify.com/oxi-social-login?surface_detail=store-design-customer-login&surface_inter_position=1&surface_intra_position=4&surface_type=category
As you notice, it's not trivial to do it and they can sell this feature at a price and have happy customers. Yet another hint that's it's not feasible to start learning programing on complex projects and skipping the first baby steps and the necessary learning steps.
I'm including a paid extension as my recommendation because you didn't specify anything in your question and therefore paid extensions might be valid solution for you.

I’m developing an app for Google Chrome and I would like to know how I can charge for it.
The problem is that I live on Brazil and on this link it tells that it doesn’t support the Chrome Web Store Payments. There is other way I can charge for that without the Chrome web store payment?
https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/pricing#seller
My initial idea is to create a hosted app that is free (but limited) and the customer pays and can use it fully. Or the other idea is to give 30 days to try and the costumer need to pay only onetime if he likes it and can use it fully.
Do you guys know how to do that living in a country not supported by Chrome Web Store Payments?
Did you notice the text on https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/pricing#seller which says "In the future, we expect to support sales to the following additional regions: Argentina, Brazil, India, Mexico, and Poland. Buyers in unsupported regions might be able to purchase apps, but they can't pay in their local currency and might have to pay international transaction fees."? Not sure if that means it would work for you or not.
Otherwise I'm pretty sure you're allowed to use other payment processors other than Chrome Web Store Payments (see https://ssl.gstatic.com/chrome/webstore/intl/en/dev_tos_text.html and https://ssl.gstatic.com/chrome/webstore/intl/en/program_policies.html), so you might see if other services like PayPal, Amazon payments, etc. are a better option for you.
I would like to synchronize our library management system (OLIB) with our Amazon's account in order to keep track of our bought eBooks. Is that even possible? The closest I've got is Amazon's Product Advertising API:
https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/advertising/api/detail/main.html
However it seems to work with Amazon's product list but there is no mention about how to access my account to manage my purchased Kindle eBooks.
Short answer, no. There's a slightly longer answer at a related question, https://stackoverflow.com/a/12905025/1251108.
In general Amazon does not seem interested in exposing customer purchase history.
Yes it is, but not officially. You can probably build something on top of the work I have done. So far I have exposed functionality for
listing bought content
listing personal documents (stuff you have emailed or Instapaper deliveries)
deleting items
You can find my code on GitHub - published just a few minutes ago :) Be aware that this works by emulating a browser, and as such will be very fragile to changes in the UI. But Amazon has not changed anything since I complained to them several years ago, so I would not worry too much ...
Is there a way to get a user's achievements list from Xbox without dealing with screen scraping etc.?
How do sites like http://www.trueachievements.com do it? (they're definitely not screen scraping as they do not have my Live ID credentials...)
I know there's the Xbox LIVE Community Developer Program (XCDP) that provides some API but they do not provide achievements information as far as I can tell (links below)
http://duncanmackenzie.net/Blog/put-up-a-rest-api-for-xbox-gamertag-data
http://file-pasta.com/file/XML_Feeds.pdf
If you want this information you can check out my new site https://xboxapi.com.
Again if your profile is public then you can see friends, games and achievements. This has taken me over a year (on and off) to code and is now in public beta. To date it has served nearly 2,000 requests and growing. I am still working on optimising this script and it should only get better in time.
I currently have an API request limit setup for 120 requests per hour per IP.
Lets hope there are no major updates to xbox.com any time soon.
It says at the bottom of the TrueAchievements website that they are a member of the Xbox LIVE Community Developer Program. That leads me to believe that the XCDP does give information about achievements. Duncan Mackenzie's API for xbox worked for me for a little while, but then his web service seemed to go offline. Duncan also says that his web service will not be returning sadly. I can't get ahold of him to ask for release of his source code. I'm currently looking for another solution in retrieving the data. Unless I can get official access with XCDP, it looks like I'll have to do screen scraping. The screen scraping approach is not going to be pretty though. I'll let you know if I get any more information.
The current XCDP API does not give you any individual achievement information. At the moment the only way to get achievements is by page scraping and as of a couple months ago Microsoft has removed their non-JS log in form for xbox.com making it very difficult to log in. TA has found a way to get around this but he's trying to monopolize the scene and isn't willing to help others on this topic.
Even though TA does not have your LIVE credentials if your xbox.com page is public and if you give them your gamertag anyone can get your information by going to http://live.xbox.com/en-US/GameCenter?compareTo=GAMERTAGHERE
With the change the Microsoft has done they've also modified achievement icons. If you're looking at a friends profile and if you don't have the game or have unlocked the achievement the icon will be monochromatic even if it's unlocked by that person.
