I am not familiar with the .NET library (or coding in .net for that matter), but I know several people have been able to get verify_credentials with a GET using the PHP OAuth lib and Abraham's great twitter OAuth wrapper lib.

Hopefully someone else with .NET experience on this list will be able to help more.. -Chad On Sun, Feb 15, 2009 at 3:42 PM, Paul Kinlan <paul.kin...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Chad, > > I definatly can't get anything other than a 401's on GET requests to > verify_credentials when using oAuth.
