I haven't done much Flash coding -- I know there are a few approaches to coding in Flash and that there are OAuth libraries available. You might want to check out this library: http://code.google.com/p/oauth-as3/ Also, there's an AIR-based open source project called Spaz that you can look at,

Hey, I'm pretty sure that Twitter isn't going to like that very much. The whole point is that everyone uses it not tries to get around it... I can't imagine supertweet will maintain it's own oauth for very long... On May 20, 12:02 pm, Jef Poskanzer jef.poskan...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks to
