Using the brilliant user system Devise and a gem called OmniAuth you can make a Rails application that logs in or registers users via Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare, etc with amazing ease. But once the user has authenticated their account, how do you go about actually interacting with the API? This article will answer that for you, with some shiny code examples.
I am from Bristol and I like cider.
I am at heart a PHP developer but every now and then I get forced into using Ruby on Rails by people who think it's the best thing since sliced bread.
I have a limited company with Scott Parry called HappyNinjas where we write a shitload of code for people who give us money.
I work on some great projects, like PyroCMS, CodeIgniter and Fuel which are starting to become a real job for me instead of just part-time open-source volunteerism; which is very nice indeed.
I am also a relatively skilled kayaker, a terrible mountain biker and world traveler.
