SoundCloud Strategy for OmniAuth 1.0

As OmniAuth says, “it was created to be powerful, flexible, and do as little as possible.” I use it constantly on hacks that mash up multiple API providers. You can now add SoundCloud to the growing list of strategies OmniAuth 1.0 supports.

You can now add SoundCloud to the growing list of strategies OmniAuth 1.0 supports.
