* Is FriendFeed Broken?

The Google Reader Notes -> FriendFeed -> Twitter dance is broken.

As of 12/15/08, entering a Note into Google Reader -> FriendFeed -> Twitter, resulted in the Note appearing in Twitter (which is good).

I entered this in a Google Reader Shared Item Note:
Wrong. Disk space is cheap. Songs are frequently on multiple
albums. Add "2" to the second to avoid the track getting
incorrectly flagged as a duplicate in iTunes.

The same thing appears in Twitter:

albums. Add "2" to the second to avoid the track... re:

As of 12/19/08, entering a Note into Google Reader -> FriendFeed -> Twitter, resulted in the original item appearing in Twitter (which is bad).

I entered this in a Google Reader Shared Item Note:
From my 10-year old daughter: Top 5 Movies Of The Year, from
Sonny's Area by Sonja W. Heels
http://friendfeed.com/e/147fe43f-4e1c-6e65-cf33
-9f401bc829d3/Top-5-Movies-Of-The-Year/

Something else appears Twitter (not what I intended):
Top 5 Movies Of The Year http://ff.im/lhio
http://twitter.com/ErikJHeels/status/1067587286

I hope this is just a glitch, because if it’s a change in how Google Reader Shared Item Notes and/or FriendFeed works, then each just became must less valuable.
