A task list where every task for you also appears "outgoing" on the task list of the person who requested the task. Based on an idea by Matthew Burton.

navPostOutgoing accepts email addresses; null value = active user's email address
Incoming list displays tasks assigned to active user's address
Outgoing list displays all tasks generated by but not assigned to active user's address

I was thinking a little about this. Imagine if everyone registered via Twitter (or Github). You could then @-name people to find them. @-names are usually easier to remember than email addresses (right?). Or we make people choose new handles. (This doesn't mean they couldn't also paste an email address.)

Absolutely, I think Twitter would be awesome. The @ syntax really makes sense for this context, and in general, I favor Twitter auth over other mechanisms (Google, Facebook) for privacy reasons.

On a related note, do you think friending is a prerequisite for sending someone a task? By default, with no users to start with, I should be able to accept tasks from anyone, whether they have signed up for this service or not. Right?

Auto-validate/auto-suggest upon typing the To: username, a la Twitter.

This will pull Twitter usernames in our user database AND email addresses that the active user has tasked in the past.
