programming

Hi, I wondered if someone could tell me if  right. Im using the api delayed key to get market and market book. Then im putting the details I need into dictionary's (int, objects). So i use a timer for Api data. Then a timer to process data from the dictionarys. All workd fine.
I was wondering if the is the correct process. Lots of info on getting the data, but very little on what or were to put it. I cant find the developers forum. Thaks in Advance.
