I've been looking for a way to do this for a long time. I have a simple(ish) login system, and I want to allow users to login with Twitter or Facebook; How can I do this? I'm pretty experienced at PHP and MySQL, but I really don't understand the API of either of the social networking sites. If you only know how the API for one of the sites, that'd be great too.

For Facebook, I use this javascript to give permission to your website (you'll need to create a FB app). I then use their php client library (google it) to make server-calls to get the data I need.

 

For Twitter, I use the EpiTwitter library because that handles all the oauth-ing and stuff pretty transparently.
