You could also have the situation where you send @username on twitter, but it goes to plurk also. The user may or may not have plurk, and/or may or may not have the same plurk username. This would be extremely complicated (or impossible) for us to detect.
I would suggest that if you are sending to a specific user on a specific service, use the single service trigger, @tt = twitter, so your message would be like:
@tt @username hi
If you want it to go to all your services and we did strip the @username from your message, it might not make sense anymore, or might even convey the wrong message. for example:
i send:
@sean is stupid
would show up on my facebook as:
adam is stupid.
not good.

chickenofeathers reported a problem in Ping.fm on July 09, 2008 01:55:
How to use plurk shorthand without frakking up Facebook?So plurk shorthand such as "@myfriend ..." gets converted by Plurk into an auto-link to your 'myfriend' on Plurk. However, on Facebook, this just comes through as a literal "@myfriend" which is silly.
Is there a way to get Facebook to strip off the @sign?
