I found this explanation of the OAuth dance much more accessible than the one at the “OAuth, OpenID and the Google Data APIs” talk. Great job!
Good talk, interesting. I wish he’d covered the token dance, because it was not clear what’s going on under the hood. OAuth, both versions, are important.
Great presentation, I appreciate the combo of general introduction and showing code, both at a level neither too basic nor too advanced. Used the hour of time very appropriately.
great job showing everyone how simple oauth 2.0 is. looking forward to working with omniauth
very well planned and well timed, good code example, informative intro, hilarious slides (with eye-searing yellow color scheme)
Great overview of the topic, good code examples, learned a lot.
