You can ask them to come and watch your videos at your owned & operated websites (O&O) where you can make higher margins as well as ask directly for more meaningful customer information such as Facebook connections, Twitter oAuths, email addresses and the like.
Beyond the fuzzy, high-level questions, there are often a lot of very specific questions like do we Use Facebook Connect – Twitter Oauth – Google Friend Connect for Authentication ? But I would argue that you don’t want to just default to those answers when there are a lot of other possibilities to consider.
In this post, I want to look at just the question of when it makes sense to use Facebook Connect, Twitter Oauth, OpenID, Yahoo Browser-Based Authentication, Google Friend Connect or basically any of the other authentication mechanisms. Example What do I mean? If you have an account on any of those systems, you can click the relevant button.
Back in January 2010, I wrote a post that's one of the most popular on this blog: When to Use Facebook Connect – Twitter Oauth – Google Friend Connect for Authentication? I continually face the challenge of designing and building registration / sign-up pages on a wide variety of different web sites and mobile applications.
Being able to leverage mobile contacts on your phone gave them independence from Facebook while many other people were doing anything they could to oAuth in FB users. It’s a Hobbesian calculation.
APIs – Integrating with Twitter, Facebook and Google+ is essential for more than just the Oauth login. Your startup could be big in Japan! Tap into language APIs, data from AngelList, Craigslist, Maps, Quantcast, LinkedIn and many others, can enrich content and make it more appealing for users.
As you may know, Twitter changes the rules for oAuth requests as well as a few minor things for apps using Twitter’s services. Now one of the things that makes my startup, Twythm ( [link] ), different is that you don’t have to authorize with Twitter using oAuth. Note: this is different from oAuth.
The API is read-only for now, but the YC-backed site could enable to private per-user info using OAuth in the future. Today the Y Combinator run Hacker News site announced its own API so developers will no longer have to scrape the site for information. This story continues at The Next Web.
Here’s how we use oAuth to integrate the user’s social graph. You can always tell these companies because they come in talking product, product, product. &# And here’s how we integrate with Gmail, Flickr and Freshbooks. Here’s how a user exports all of their data to a CSV file. Blah, blah, blah.
I’ve been through a bunch of different iterations of technology around this such as SAML, FOAF, and Oauth. I’ve completely f *d up my address book more than once, especially as I tried to wire in data from other services that use Oauth or an email address to join data across web services. I remember Firefly and Passport.
I wonder if this will change with Office 365 – I hope Microsoft is building a trivial to use oauth to O365 so it’s easy to connect to, along with a good sync API. I was trying to think of other authentication that would be helpful to me in the context of my contacts.
Now however, you are greeted with ever familiar OAuth prompts for services you probably already have an account with. Setting up a digital picture frame you are asked to OAuth with Flickr. This shows a world of interconnected devices, that starts with the initial OAuth handshake. This happens with more than just web services.
I tend to get sucked into the productivity software rabbit hole pretty easily, but in this case the switching costs were very low (OAuth with calendars) and the savings was very high (instant keyboard shortcut time savings).
For a host of reasons the web is, of course, much easier, e.g. bugs can be fixed ten minutes after discovery, multiple landing pages can be tested simultaneously, the journey from email to service is very quick, connecting with OAuth is much quicker.
However during the process Twitter reminded me of all the other sites/apps/services I have OAuth’d with in the past few years. I changed my password and actually audited where else I may have used this password – hopefully I am clear. WOW – ALMOST 200 APPS!
What’s up with OAuth/WRAP? Ryan Sarver, Dir. of Platform, Twitter. Jonathan Ellis, Lead on the Cassandra project. Some of the sessions that are finalized include: The Cassandra Database: Inside Twitter’s Choice. 5 Things I Hate about your API Terms of Service. The Apache Cloud Stack (Hadoop, HBase, Zookeeper, etc).
And since it uses OAuth to log in, it doesn’t even need to ask for your credentials. Instead of going through the usual configuration screens on iOS, Intro uses Apple’s “configuration profiles” capability auto discover your accounts and insert their servers in the middle.
This is what the ads will look like – very similar to the Facebook “face pile” you see on sites where you have friends that have OAuthed. We believe that these recommendations could help your readers notice ads on your site more, leading to higher returns for you over time.
Alright, let’s move down the line: Look for anybody who implements OAuth/Facebook Connect/etc. Do you embed it on e.g. log in pages or anywhere your admins expose their own all-powerful admin cookies? Boo, now the enemy has your password / cookies / etc. Do any of them use Ruby on Rails? Are you sure?
and OpenID Connect, the soon-to-be standardized profile of OAuth 2.0. With Toopher, Gluu’s enterprise customers can offer their employees, partners, and customers an excellent user experience for strong authentication with single sign-on to cloud, mobile, and social applications using SAML 2.0 Enterprise Toopher'
You could even throw in a social proof column where the company could write who its backers are or Oauth to LinkedIn to show how closely connected it is to the principals of your partnership efforts. Those are the types of partners--media companies, publishers, etc. Currently, the process just seems really inefficient.
Reply 16 0 Paul May 5th, 2011 7:07 am oAuth is the way forward. Reply 15 0 Andy May 5th, 2011 7:00 am Fantastic post on some really great techniques! I’ll definitely be using this soon. 5 second sign-up and it would stop people from being able to passwords too! I just with that facebook, twitter, etc.
Today it’s relatively simple to find out a lot of information about the users by having them connect to one of their social profiles using OAuth. b) Similarity - a connection between you and your customers. Pintrest for example, make users give them information about their tastes and interests before they display the homepage, etc.

There should be some standards adopted by in the HTML5 spec that utilize these new technologies: OpenID, OAuth, ActivityStreams, etc. My ultimate opinion? Emil Cohen says: April 17th, 2010 at 10:31 pm Superior writer, OpenID is a safe, faster and easier way to log in to web sites.
