I wonder if Point 2 is a bit out of context, or meant to say, "write however the fuck you feel." I'll admit I can be a grammar Nazi at times, but that's always inside my own head. I don't necessarily go around critiquing someone else's posts with a red pen, anxiously waiting to jot down their mistakes. I do, however, love MY writing to be like that more often than not. I feel somewhat unsure about the approach taken to how one should respond to their audience.
You can be elegant and eloquent and use proper punctuation, yet still write with passion. Maybe I'll need to read that portion over as few more times for an alternative perspective. Great article, otherwise.
I'd add, try not to sound like a douche. Many of these gurus often sound like their gods gift to the world. Few know that 140 charicters at a time ain't that hard to come up with.
