Hi Marc, In this case, instead of using the username/password of a different account while making a request, you would use an access token/access token secret belonging to a different account. You don't need to create separate applications for each account, but you need to authorize the application to act on behalf of each account.
If you don't want to implement the OAuth flow to acquire access tokens in your application, you can use another application or library (such as my OAuth Dancer at http://github.com/episod/oauth-dancer ) to secure the access tokens, then port them over to your "proper" application.
