Hi Taylor,

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, your reply is exactly what I wanted. I am
trying to implement those APIs in my application now.

 Hi Mrinmoy,

 By add user as my friend are you meaning that you want to the user to be
 following your account?

 This is all possible with both the API and @Anywhere (
 http://dev.twitter.com/anywhere ).

 If you went with an API-based integration, you'll need to implement OAuth
 for the authentication leg of your integration (
 http://dev.twitter.com/auth ) and, provided that you've made it abundantly
 clear to the user that the act of approving the integration will result in
 them following a user, you'd use the friendships/create API method
 http://dev.twitter.com/doc/post/friendships/create/:id -- I'd recommend
 asking the user to take a direct action to perform the follow operation
 though, rather than automatically doing it.

 Hi,

 We need to perform following works from our site.

 1. Authenticate User using API
 2. Add user as my friend

 Is there APIs available for these? Please reply. Thanking in advance

 We are thinking like bellow.

 1. User will click a link on my website.
 2. A popup will open asking login id and password of that user
 3. User will give login credential and click join
 4. That member will be added as my friend
