http://hueniverse.com/oauth/guide/intro/

* lets a user give an app specific permissions to interact with a service on their behalf
Roles in OAuth:
* consumer (client) -- ''your app''
* service provider (server) -- ''Twitter''
* user (resource owner) -- ''user''
* receive OAuth keys
** '''<tt>consumer_key</tt>'''
** '''<tt>consumer_secret</tt>'''
