Authored by Mark Hefflinger on June 9, 2009 - 12:27pm.
Palo Alto, Calif. - Facebook informed its users on Tuesday that, beginning on Friday evening, they will be able to select a username by which their personal profiles will be identified by URL. Instead of URLs like "facebook.com/profile.php?id=12345," users can opt for a personal URL like "facebook.com/mark.zuckerberg." Starting at 12:01 a.m. EDT on Saturday, June 13, usernames will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
