Twitter and Wifi Shield : Does Twitter-controlledMoodLamp example work now?

I have been looking at one of the Arduino examples http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Twitter-controlledMoodLamp which controls a LED using twitter hashtags.

At the same time, I also read in different places that Twitter APIs now require OAUTH and therefore cannot be run using Aduino.

I do not think the example above: http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Twitter-controlledMoodLamp using Twitter APIs. Instead it uses "search.twitter.com" to find specific words.

Still I am unable to make the above example work. The LED refuses to light up at all.

Can someone guide me if this example on Arduino site is still a workable one, and is it now affected by the fact that Twitter APIs require OAUTH now?

Thanks a lot.
