Did you Grab Your Name at Facebook for your URL?

This is Important and you need to know about it Right Away.

Last night Facebook staged one of the biggest virtual land grabs ever – the rush to own your own name on Facebook.com

Before this, if you wanted to send someone to your profile, you would have to figure out a URL looking something like this:

www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=010101011

Wouldn’t you rather own www.facebook.com/yourname ?

But here’s the catch – it’s first come, first serve. If you have a common name, you might have missed out already.

Go right now to http://www.facebook.com

Log in and you will see a form that gives you several suggested usernames, and the ability to choose your own. Either choose one of the names suggested or type in your own.

If someone else already has your name, get creative – add a period, or a dash or shorten it, lengthen it or slap a number in there (just one) somewhere.

I already got my name at midnight, before going out. Sorry, that’s why I’m just letting you know now.

Hope you can get your name, it’s going to make a huge difference. It will come up in google really quick.
