Hi folks,

How would I do this? I have a website (www.myenergyusage.org) which I
want to get talking to twitter.
It will send updates on other user's accounts of their power usage
etc. I do not want, nor expect user to like it, to keep a user's
username and password as I would have to keep it as plain text.

Is there a way a user can give me their username, a "secret key" (not
password) which I can then use to send updates from the website?

...or do I need to hold a person's username and their password (in
clear text?)
Is it possible for me to hash a password, save that and use that to
authenticate?


TIA


Cheers,
Cripsin
