I'm sure this applies to any of these image sharing services, of course, but I'm particularly disappointed in yfrog, since they use OAuth, ostensibly. Are people serious about this OAuth thing? We should make it known that 3rd party apps aren't playing kosher with your passwords.
How does Basic Auth work though? How can they prevent using it? I'm assuming that the website will still have a text login, can't they somehow highjack that? I guess Twitter just won't make it an XML interface or whatnot anymore, so it'll necessarily be a hack.
So are they also saying that you can't have 3rd party desktop apps anymore without registering them with OAuth? That's a bit annoying if you ask me. I guess they'll have an API key like Flickr.
