I have an application that does not need access to anything in or do
anything to a Twitter account, it just wants proof that the user owns
the account. This doesn't seen to fit with OAuth; the app needs proof
of identity rather than authorization, so in fact OpenID would be more
suitable than OAut
Hi Elliott,
This scenario worked well with basic authentication; you could just
delegate the login to Twitter. Now I don't see a way to do it without
requiring the user to create another account so that the token can be
associated with it. I haven't got that far myself, but I think you're
missing
nID. Sorry to hijack your

If they have to log in before you request authorization, can't you
just store the token with the login credentials (in your db) and use
it next time?

I think we're getting some movement on this - see this thread:
