I did some work a while back with using OAuth on sites other than 
twitter/facebook.

Chuck's code suffers from problems where important parts of the OAuth 
spec were ignored, and other features (such as web site addresses/time 
zones) were hard coded.  From memory, there was a secondary post which 
improved much of Chuck's code although it was less easy to locate.  I 
reworked parts of both and got it working for the situation I was 
working with  (D7 and Indy 10 to Xero).  I can make a sanitised version 
of the code available,  however it comes with no warranties or support!!
