I am new to OAuth, but want to find a good way to start, and use a library that has wide support

What are the benefits and disadvantages of the following (there are probably more, but these are the Java based that I have found so far)

spring social being the part of spring wagon might have good support, but if it comes to ease of use,flexibility and light weight i will go with scribe-java –  Umesh Awasthi Feb 20 '12 at 12:15

For java base library you can use Socialauth because it is easy to use with any java framework like struts, spring and it provides good support to its users.

Socialauth is a good choice as it provides an abstraction layer to major social login providers. It is also updated regularly and is adding new providers.

I tried scribe but it seems it is going to drop out support to oAuth 2.
