You should probably set DEBUG at False. This is very undesirable in a production environment as it will probably leak sensitive information that attackers can use against your site. Unless, of course, if you use only the Django ORM.

Thank you. I've tried setting debug to false but it causes a problem with the template. Do you know how I set it to false without affecting the design? I've tried a couple of ways as suggested on SO but all seem to return a server error.
How is your design affected?

For the case when the user isn't willing to give access to his/her twitter account.

The error returned is KeyError, since you are trying to access :

user = User.objects.get(username = authorized_tokens['screen_name'])

I see that you have put a try, except blocks. But you are not catching the KeyError exception. You are only making an exception when the user doesn't exist.

you should add a block : except KeyError. And figure out the logic for this particular case. (probably just redirecting the user to the home page)

Seconded - I tried to participate but wasn't willing to give access to my twitter account. It gave me a very verbose error page.
