+  As of 31-Aug-2010, Twitter no longer supports Basic Authentication.
+  OAuth is now required for authenticated requests. For more information,
+  please see:
+
+  http://github.com/semifor/Net-Twitter/wiki/Net::Twitter-and-the-death-of-Basic-Authentication.
+
+  Other Twitter compatible services may still accept Basic Authentication,
+  so support for it remains in Net::Twitter.
