Hi, This is my first post to this group, so... hiya!
I've been struggling with this OAuth stuff for a little while. I've been trying to find a user interface that rivals the simplicity and ease of use of a username/password system with a traditional desktop app. What I've come up with uses a temporary webview to request the authentication and stores the access token in the Mac OS X Keychain. It's not as clean as a username/password, but it's not too bad either. I've set up and example just to ask for comments. I'd appreciate any comments, but mostly about: 1. The user experience -- how is it? 2. Am I being a good OAuth citizen? 3. What are the pitfalls of a technique like this? 4. Are there other examples out there that offer a better/cleaner/ easier/safer experience? If there's interest I'd be happy to publish this as open source. NB: This isn't really meant to be a real twitter client. You probably shouldn't use it as one. ;-) Requirements: Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard (intel) Download: http://www.yourhead.com/oauth/oauth.dmg Twitter: @isaiah Email: isa...@mac.com Thanks, Isaiah
