Thanks for this and your article (http://bernardi.me/using-multiple-omniauth-providers-with-omniauth-identity-on-the-main-user-model/). I've been trying to piece it together with information from http://railscasts.com/episodes/235-devise-and-omniauth-revised?view=comments, but no success. Yet!

Do you know of any resources that show how to hook this all up with the devise gem? Thanks!
