Slightly OT, but as a mobile guy who occasionally toys with server-side programming, authentication is always where I get stuck. I'd like to see some examples of how to implement authentication and sessions cleanly without too much framework magic. Any pointers?

If you want to make it even easier, use OmniAuth: http://recipes.sinatrarb.com/p/middleware/twitter_authentica...
