TwitterOAuth
============

[](#twitteroauth)

Rob Marscher |

Fork of abraham's OAuth library for Twitter's REST API. This version uses the pecl/oauth extension instead of a php OAuth class.

Reasons for forking this project:

- C-extensions are inherently faster than PHP libraries
- pecl/oauth has support of PHP creator Rasmus Lerdorf (see )
- pecl/oauth can send OAuth Authorization HTTP headers
- I worked with the pecl/oauth team to add support for multipart form posts that enable uploading profile images and background images to your twitter profile (see )
