Fantastic, thank you. I currently was just taking the cookie provided
by @Anywhere and validating it. Once validated I made a OAuth call to
users/show, which returned the users information. Am using it to
provide single sign-on and need things such as name, username, etc..
this seams to do the trick. Will review the link further and implement
it.
