 WordPress.tv wants to use the twitter handles and hashtags from the
 central.wordcamp.org API to be able to warn WordCamps when their videos
 are online on WPTV and/or YouTube.
 There currently seems no restriction on these fields as e.g. the twitter
 handle could be anything like 'https://twitter.com/WCeurope', '@WCeurope'
 or 'WCeurope'.

 The most easy would probably to check for the first character of the
 handle (@) and the first character of the hashtag (#) so all encode in the
 same way.
