I wanted to get an access token to work with google contacts. I could
get a request token, and get it authorized. But,  I couldn't exchange
it for an access token. I kept getting 'invalid token'.

I looked into HMAC vs RSA, thinking that might be the problem. I
finally discovered the 'oauth_verifier' param, which is passed back
from google to the consumer (after user has authorized access) is
required to be passed in on the return call for an access token.

It's not mentioned in the google docs @ this time but it is mentioned
here:
http://oauth.googlecode.com/svn/spec/core/1.0a/drafts/3/oauth-core-1_0a.html#auth_step3

Hope this helps someone.
