Posts from reader --> facebook

[Marc Thomas]

When I share something from reader into my buzz. The post that gets
sent over to Facebook is all messed up.

Here it is in buzz:

Here is what it looks like in Facebook.

Yep, that's what it does to links at the moment. Not nice, I know.

I've just finished a revamp of the code moving posts from facebook ->
buzz, and that should behave better than it used to (particularly,
video and pictures cross over really well).

But buzz->facebook is yet to be done, and fairly crappy at the moment.
It's the next item on my list, I'll let you all know when it's done.

For extra nerdage: Once I've done that, the code will be structured so
that the posts and comments are moving via a common internal format.
This means that the piece reading from one system, and the piece
writing to the other, are nicely separated, and can be plugged into
other things. So, I'll be able to begin looking at supporting other
systems (eg: Twitter, Evernote) at that point.
