    Generally, the process of authentication with different services goes like this:

    • You request an AUTH_TOKEN from the service.

    • You send this AUTH_TOKEN to your server and either create a new user with all the information that you can possibly get from the service (name, email, location etc.) or you merge it with an existing user if he already exists in the database.

    • When the user logs in in the future, you’ll know whether his AUTH_KEY corresponds to a user in the database or not.

    Now for the APIs, for Twitter you can use Twitter4j, for Facebook you can use their official SDK which are really optimized for a Mobile experience. For the rest, I am not aware of any Android SDK, so you can probably either use Spring Social as @Darko mentionned or use their REST APIs directly.
