I have an application that does not need access to anything in or do anything to a Twitter account, it just wants proof that the user owns the account. This doesn't seen to fit with OAuth; the app needs proof of identity rather than authorization, so in fact OpenID would be more suitable than OAuth.
Ideally I would be able to get the username and user id from the Twitter API without getting authorization for anything else. What's the best way to tackle this? Cheers, Graeme.
