  yes, this is badly needed, same goes for mentioning people and pages in facebook posts

  I'd really like to see smart autocomplete in Buffer that can tag a Twitter username, Facebook page, LinkedIn page/company, and so on. It would be a little more work for a user to select each one when using an @mention in Buffer, but it would make a big difference in the output of the post to each social network to include the tagged account.

  Fully agree w/ Matthew Kulp. Really missing that feature!

  I agree with Peter Thomson. I love the Buffer safari extension but it doesn't save me much time because I end up searching the site, google or twitter for the proper twitter handle before posting.

  If the extension had a Twitter-linked quick search or pulled the proper twitter handle from the code, I would be delighted.

  The @mention could be autosuggested from any text that says "Follow me on Twitter" on the blog page. Even if it wasn't always right it would be a killer feature for making buffered tweets more personal and giving credit where it's due.

  I assume you are also considering mentions in Facebook as well @Leo

  Many Thanks, great app and soooo simple to use, love it.

  YES, PLEASE! :) Autofill for hashtags would be nice, as well!

  This is badly needed!! I'm in the same boat. With Twitter you always want to mention people who wrote a post but its hard remembering their Twitter names. I find myself always having to have a Twitter page open so I can search and find them. Kind of lessens the impact of Buffer if you can't do that.

  +1 this is a pain for me at the moment when using twitter, because their autocomplete doesn't work for all the people I follow (weird) but buffer doesn't autocomplete at all :( would make it much easier and you could even get it right :)

  This was also posted somewhere else... and I used 3 votes for it. I'm running out of votes!!! :) Can you combine these two so this point has more votes?

  Thanks

  Definitely needed - otherwise, i have to have twitter open in a separate window in order to remember people's obscure twitter handles.

  Instead of autocomplete from my follower/friend list, I would prefer Buffer searches on the page for a reference to the author's twitter account. So the Buffer builds a tweet like this
  <some text highlighted on web page> http://bit.ly/blah by @username

  Yes! Please make this happen sometime soon. I'm terrible at remembering the handles of people I tweet to (especially those which are spelled in a strange way) and the lack of auto-complete has been a major inconvenience for me on a daily basis. Other than that I LOVE the app. Thank you!
