Twitter - automatic aggregation of replies to an account - OAuth problem

Question

We have a company twitter account. We have 6 members. I wanted the 6 members to be able to tweet from their accounts and we aggregate it and show it at our site if the tweet is about the company (it basically shows "Whats happening").

I created a company twitter account, and members will reply to the company twitter account, when its a company tweet.

I used the twitter.lib.php API. I coded it and when I tried to run it, I got the message "Basic Authentication is not supported". Looking around, I guess twitter uses OAuth now. From what I have seen, there has to be an authentication at the twitter site and then it'll send me back to my site. However this will not work for me, I want an automated bot updating our site. What can I do now? Thanks!
