Review jQuery based popup to Twitter login page. This same usage should be reviewed for Google as well in hopes it won't be blocked by pop up blockers anymore. Examples as follows.

Profile data retrieval worked with the below.
https://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.json?user_id=USER_ID
However, this is version 1.0 usage which is scheduled to be retired. Version 1.1 refuses to authenticate even though is signed properly.

The request was being forced as POST due to populating CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS. Parameters are now appended after base encoding and authentication established to the URL directly. Request is now guaranteed GET. Is now working and returning data.
