Taking screenshot of windows phone 7.5 and sending over through TCP - windows-phone-7

Question

i am stuck on how to take a screenshot of my windows phone 7.5 and sending it over TCP. i have no experience in doing socket program and I/O and am doing what i can through tutorials over the internet. This is what i have done.
From the codes below i am stuck in how i can send the writeableBitMap over TCP encoded as a Jpeg periodically running in the WP7.5 background, whereby a program on a desktop will receive it as a jpeg image so it can be displayed creating a windows phone to desktop streaming effect.
my mainPage of my windows phone 7.5 application using a library i have created from a tutorial for taking care of the sockets connection.

}
private void btnConnect_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
bool retVal;
retVal = sl.EstablishTCPConnection(hostIP);
WriteableBitmap bmpCurrentScreenImage = new WriteableBitmap((int)this.ActualWidth, (int)this.ActualHeight);
var ms = new MemoryStream();
// Send the picture.
bmpCurrentScreenImage.SaveJpeg(ms, bmpCurrentScreenImage.PixelWidth, bmpCurrentScreenImage.PixelHeight, 0, 90);
ms.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
retVal = sl.Send(ms);
sl.CloseSocket();
}
}
}
the socket library
namespace SocketLibrary
{
public class socketLib
{
Socket s = null;
static ManualResetEvent done = new ManualResetEvent(false);
private Int16 portNo = 3334;
public socketLib()
{
}
public bool EstablishTCPConnection(string host)
{
s = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream,
ProtocolType.Tcp);
SocketAsyncEventArgs socketEventArg = new SocketAsyncEventArgs();
socketEventArg.RemoteEndPoint = new DnsEndPoint(host, portNo);
socketEventArg.Completed += new
EventHandler<SocketAsyncEventArgs>(delegate(object o, SocketAsyncEventArgs e)
{
done.Set();
});
done.Reset();
s.ConnectAsync(socketEventArg);
return done.WaitOne(10000);
}
public bool Send(MemoryStream data)
{
byte[] msData = data.ToArray();
if (s != null)
{
SocketAsyncEventArgs socketEventArg = new SocketAsyncEventArgs();
socketEventArg.RemoteEndPoint = s.RemoteEndPoint;
socketEventArg.UserToken = null;
socketEventArg.Completed += new
EventHandler<SocketAsyncEventArgs>(delegate(object o, SocketAsyncEventArgs e)
{
done.Set();
});
socketEventArg.SetBuffer(msData, 0, msData.Length);
done.Reset();
s.SendAsync(socketEventArg);
return done.WaitOne(10000);
}
return false;
}
public void CloseSocket()
{
if (s != null)
{
s.Close();
}
}
}
}
