Twitter OAuth Quickstart
<?php
/*
* uses tmhOauth from https://github.com/themattharris/tmhOAuth/
* and is mostly based on the oauth flow example from that library (thanks matt!)
*
* also need your own twitter api key / secret, and make sure it's got write access
* if you want to publish posts (extra step when making your api key on twitter)
