One problem I have with OAuth or perhaps the implementation thereof by
services around the web is that it is typically all-or-nothing. E.g.
currently I can visit Google Maps and opt to not share my location.
But I cannot login to some services without giving them access to post
on my Facebook wall.

I guess there is not much that can be done about this other than
encouraging services to provide such granularity.
