• This Website: <meta name="twitter:site" content="@websiteAccount">
• Guest Author: <meta name="twitter:creator" content="@authorAccount">

<meta name="twitter:site" content="@websiteAccount"> // This Website
<meta name="twitter:creator" content="@authorAccount"> // Guest Author

E.g. I understand that a conventional link to a Twitter account looks like this:

which is great, but given that (I've just learned) rel="me" is the XFN equivalent of rel="author", I conclude this is an appropriate form to use only when referring to the author-contributor.

So what should I use for the publisher-contributor and for the website itself?

E.g. I understand that a conventional link to a Twitter account may look like this:

which is great, but given that (I've just learned) rel="me" is the XFN equivalent of rel="author", I conclude this is an appropriate form to use only when referring to the author-contributor - and even then, perhaps only in the context of a personal blog linking to a personal twitter account.

If rel="me" has a limited use-case, what rel values should I be using for the author-contributor, publisher-contributor and for the website itself?
