Every generated link to a user’s Twitter profile has the class twitter-username so that you’re able to style username links.

.twitter-username {
	color: #226699;
}

.twitter-username:before {
	content: '\u0040';
	color: #7aa3c1;
}

In addition, all generated links are rel="nofollow" as well as target="blank". Email addresses remain untouched by this plugin.
