What about: @username.dw @username.lj @username.twitter (I don't know a shortened form of twitter) @username.fb (Facebook link) @username.site.com (or .net or .whatever for OpenID accounts)
And so on? There would have to be the .text attached to @username to make it turn into something, and if there is something attached before the @ then the whole email@someplace.com gets ignored?
I like the @username thing because it just isn't Twitter, Facebook uses it and it simplifies linking names. I really do think the way cross site names are linked here on Dreamwidth needs to be simplified.
Or, what about < username.dw > (minus the spaces) and so on? Or possibly <@username.dw> (I don't like this so much though, but it is still much simpler than now).
