Twitter Launches Facebook Status Updates

You can check me out on Twitter, Facebook, or FriendFeed to see what I'm up to. Thanks for visiting!
I noticed yesterday that Twitter has officially launched the ability to update Facebook through your updates on Twitter. You just click on the Twitter app within Facebook, and you’ll see a link that says, “Want Twitter to update your Facebook status? Click here.” Click on that, the message will still be there (they say they’re working on that), but all your Twitter updates will now go to your Facebook status as well. Any Twitter replies (with @username in them) stay on Twitter and do not go to Facebook, resolving my previous concern.
UPDATE: Twitter doesn’t ignore just any post with an @username in it. The post has to start with @username for Twitter to ignore the post. I’d love to see it just ignore anything with @username, since Facebook friends won’t know who @username is anyway.

sweet! thanks for the tip - I've been hoping they would add that feature.

One annoyance I've noticed after using this for a while is that it forces you to twitter as if finishing the sentence "Fulano is..." since Facebook automatically pastes that in the front of your update.
