Vanity URLs for your Facebook account

Get ready to dump the database generated number that serves as your Facebook account URL currently:

Starting on Friday, June 12th, at 11:01pm, you'll be able to choose a username for your Facebook account to easily direct friends, family, and coworkers to your profile. http://www.facebook.com/username/
