OAuth (Open Authorization; read about it here) is a log-in protocol used by many Web sites, including Yahoo and Google. Twibes uses OAuth to authenticate you with Twitter so that we know who you are without ever seeing your Twitter password. OAuth is the most secure way to allow an application to access your tweets and post to Twitter on your behalf.
