This can’t wait! It is IMPORTANT!!

Starting tonight at midnight Eastern US time (that would be 9:00pm Pacific time) you can claim your name as a facebook URL.

So right now if you want to send someone to your profile, you would have to figure out a URL that looks something like this:

www.facebook.com/people/Your-Name/585946540

But wouldn’t you rather have www.facebook.com/yourname?

Starting tonight at midnight Eastern US time (that would be 9:00pm Pacific time) you can claim your name as a facebook URL.

But here’s the catch – it’s first come, first serve. So Here’s what to do.

Tonight at midnight US Eastern time, login to Facebook then go to http://www.facebook.com/username

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

That’s everything! I’ll be there at midnight, and you should be there too!
