Knowing whether the email was sent is not always something you can do synchronously. A simple check for an "@" sign would go a long way to avoiding bounced mail notifications from usernames being entered in email address fields.

Great point about displaying event dates. I think there should be some display guidelines based on the type of content the date is describing.

I'm guessing they do actually care about screenshots, given that they have been recently restricting the ways they allow people to display tweets. They did change the format they used when displaying individual tweets, I'm guessing this was
