reading HttpwebResponse json response, C#

First you need an object

public class MyObject {
  public string Id {get;set;}
  public string Text {get;set;}
  ...
}

Then in here

    using (var twitpicResponse = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse()) {

        using (var reader = new StreamReader(twitpicResponse.GetResponseStream())) {
            JavaScriptSerializer js = new JavaScriptSerializer();
            var objText = reader.ReadToEnd();
            MyObject myojb = (MyObject)js.Deserialize(objText,typeof(MyObject));
        }

    }

I haven't tested with the hierarchical object you have, but this should give you access to the properties you want.

JavaScriptSerializer System.Web.Script.Serialization

I'd use RestSharp - https://github.com/restsharp/RestSharp

Create class to deserialize to:

public class MyObject {
    public string Id { get; set; }
    public string Text { get; set; }
    ...
}

And the code to get that object:

RestClient client = new RestClient("http://whatever.com");
RestRequest request = new RestRequest("path/to/object");
request.AddParameter("id", "123");

// The above code will make a request URL of 
// "http://whatever.com/path/to/object?id=123"
// You can pick and choose what you need

var response = client.Execute<MyObject>(request);

MyObject obj = response.Data;
