Hi,
Basic authentication, which is the method of sending a username and
password on each API call through HTTP Basic Auth, is going away in June.
The best path to implementing secure authentication that doesn't put users
at risk is OAuth ( http://dev.twitter.com/pages/auth_overview and
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/auth )
For certain kinds of applications that do not have ready access to a web
browser and who would rather eschew the entire OAuth out-of-band flow (which
is more appropriate and introduces less risk at the cost of what some may
perceive as a poorer user experience), we offer xAuth on an approval-basis.
xAuth still requires implementing most of the OAuth standard, but allows you
to exchange a username and password, with the user's permission, for an
OAuth access token. You would then dispose of the login and password given
by the user and use an access token, which the user can revoke at any time,
to access resources on the member's behalf. You can read about xAuth at
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/xauth .
