Until now, the URL associated with each person or page was just a randomly assigned number like "id=592952074." That soon will change.
Starting at 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, June 13, Facebook will allow people to use their username as part of the URL in their browser.
You will be able to choose a username on a first-come, first-serve basis by visiting www.facebook.com/username/.
Users will also see a notice on their home pages with instructions for obtaining a username at that time.
