Evolving the Social Web with OAuth 2.0
OAuth has paved the way for seamless web experiences where users can flow data across sites without sharing their passwords. Now, social experiences are moving away from a single webpage across the whole web, and to mobile devices – and the protocols that support them are changing as well. In this session you’ll learn how OAuth is evolving and get an in depth look at how to get started quickly with OAuth 2.0. Code samples included.
- Why OAuth
- Differences from OAuth 1.0a
- Who’s using it
- How do I use it? (with code examples)
- Still evolving, here’s where to keep up to date

Comments
Thanks for a clearly presented session. I found it interesting, useful and straightforward.
I thought the material was explained clearly for those who were non-technical, setting out the context and thinking. There was also enough depth for those who wanted to get their hands dirty too.
Can’t wait to see Facebook using OAuth 2.0 :)
