About Twitter and OAuth (the article is long but it contains  
interesting bits for this group)

In Why Twitter's New Security Solution Could Pave the Way to a Future  
Web of Mashups - ReadWriteWeb
At http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_twitters_new_oauth_matters.php

The solution being explored (called OAuth) could
not only make the much-watched Twitter more
secure, it could help usher in an era where
effective user security enables an explosion of
mashups across every website we store our data in.
Twitter is planning its own showcase of trusted
applications, but this could be an important part
of an even bigger story
