Brightkite > Friendfeed > Facebook... "checked in" does not appear in the Facebook Newsfeed

I import my Friendfeed to the Facebook Newsfeed. I use Friendfeed as the hub of my lifestreams, which I aggregate there and then redistribute to social sites such as Facebook. Amon my sources is the Brightkite service.

In Friendfeed, the Brightkite entries show up like :

You checked in on brightkite.com
Rue Linné, 75005 Paris

Very good.

The problem is that the same entry imported in Facebook will show up in the Newsfeed as :

Jean-Marc posted Rue Linné, 75005 Paris - Comment or View your FriendFeed ».

Baaad. A prefix such as "checked in" should be included instead of just the place name. With nothing like it, readers have no way to see that this is a check-in and not a blog post.

The body of entries in the Brightkite RSS stream mentions lines such as :

liotier checked in @ Rue Linné, 75005 Paris

So it is correct. It is actually the Friendfeed Facebook app that picks only the subject of the entry, instead of the body :

You: Rue Linné, 75005 Paris (via brightkite.com)

Which corresponds to what Facebook shows into the Newsfeed.

In summary, the problem is the compound of :
- The subject of a Friendfeed Brighkite entry not containing "checked in" as a prefix
- Friendfeed Facebook app picking only the subject of the entry.

So either :
- Alter the format of the Friendfeed Brighkite entries in the Friendfeed RSS stream to include "checked in" as a prefix
- or make the Friendfeed Facebook app pick the body of Brightkite entries instead of the subject.

For now, a Brightkite entry showed in Facebook via Friendfeed is confusing among the blogging and microblogging entries.

I mentioned this issue to Brightkite, and they acknowledge it - although they only promised to take a look at it. But the solution might rather be on the Friendfeed side.
