Public bug reported:

In order for previews to show up on twitter when you tweet a URL, the
site needs to have some setup done for "Twitter Cards", which is what
they call the preview thing that shows up when you click "Expand". The
site admin then needs to submit the URL for the site to Twitter for
validation by a human being.

We can't do much about the second bit, submitting the URL to Twitter,
but we can add in all the support for the Cards. The syntax is
apparently quite similar to OpenGraph (which is what Facebook uses)

Here's the Twitter Card documentation:
