This is sequence of my previous post but now with Yahoo.
I have downloaded Scribe example source code to get authenticated with Yahoo. But the default example was not working. After several hours of research, I found out that the author had forgotten to send a request to Yahoo APIs to get a GUID, which is in turn used to get user profile data. I have modified the code to fix that and here is the working code.

In my next post, I will provide a sample web app where OAuth is used to authenticate with Yahoo/Google/Facebook.
Enjoy networking.
