  		i'm not sure that i learned a lot, but it did get me to be more conscious of my running and why i do it. there were some interesting theories presented pertaining to our suitability as runners (hence the title), but mostly it engaged me because it did a good job of capturing the joy of running. it was definitely one of my better training weeks :)

  	James - are you using HMAC-SHA1 to generate the signature? When you PUT to /review/&lt;review_id&gt;.xml, the error in the logs is invalid signature method. Make sure you have oauth_signature_method=&quot;HMAC-SHA1&quot; as part of the Authorization header.

  &quot;of those interviewed thus far, my impression is that most seem to feel coding is more similar to writing than to art or engineering&quot;

  	Sorry this was confusing! The documentation could definitely be improved. <br/><br/>All of these steps that you went through to get an access token will be the same for any OAuth provider. I.e., the code you wrote to ask for request token, get it authorized, and then exchange for an access token will probably work as is with any site that supports OAuth, assuming their endpoints are the same.<br/><br/>We'll work on making this more clear or at the very least linking to a site that does a good job of explaining it. OAuth can be a little tricky to worth with as a dev, but hopefully as adoption improves so will the tools and example code.<br/><br/>
