Use of @mentions

I think, like Twitter, typing @ followed by a name should make the name into a link to the person's profile. ^^

Moreover, I think if one of your friend types a message with @ followed by your name in an update, it should be highlighted in yellow (or blue, as Glitch seems to like blue). ^^
