Hi Graeme, I think I'm doing a similar thing - I want to use Twitter as the registration and login process for my app. Right now, Twitter asks for approval every time the user logs into the account. Is there a way to say "remember this application" and then always accept auth requests from that application in future, like OpenID does?
Long story short, I'm using OAuth like OpenID. Sorry to hijack your thread, but I think we're after the same thing.
