The System.Net.Http namespace is only available in .NET Framework 4.5. Make sure that your project is targeting .NET 4.5 and then try adding it from the references dialog.

To change the project configuration, right-click the project in solution explorer and click Properties. Go to the Application tab and select the desired framework in the Target Framework combo box.

You should add a referenc to System.Net.Http.dll from your project. To do this in your Solution Explorer Right Click your References then click Add Reference.Search for System.Net.Http, add it to your references. Then you can use "using System.Net.Http;"

See the documentation for more details: How to: Add or Remove References By Using the Add Reference Dialog Box
