Re: [twitter-dev] Is there support for the OAuth 2-legged model?
Hi all, We don't yet support two-legged OAuth but see value in its use for actions requiring client application authorization but not necessarily user-based authentication. As Raffi notes, we're implementing it now. However, two-legged OAuth does not necessarily solve the issue you're looking to solve, actions requiring an actor like tweeting, favoriting, etc. would still require an OAuth access token. In the case of a single purpose application with a single user, you would leverage OAuth to exchange your own credentials for an access token which you could then re-use indefinitely for the single-user use case of your application.
