ntrprnr 0 #1 June 10, 2009 All: Facebook is opening up names to people come this Saturday, 12:01am EST. So instead of being "facebook.com/049937929379283e, you can be facebook.com/people/skymamma" or whatever. I've done some work with them, and I got mine a little early - gotta tell you, it's kinda cool to be able to say "Yeah, just find me at http://www.facebook.com/petershankman More info can be found from Facebook's blog, here: http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=90316352130 Most importantly, just make sure you get yours, then start stealing other people's. :)_______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

skymama 37 #2 June 10, 2009 I wonder who will be the first to claim "skydiver". I know who snagged that on Twitter, I saw it on CNN. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was funny - When the interview ended, Rick Sanchez said to me off air "So are you on TV?" I said, "No, why?" He goes "You sure have a lot of followers!"

normiss 868 #10 June 10, 2009 Come on Peter, there's only just over 200 million FB losers users, surely their servers can handle having to double the Db! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hausse 0 #11 June 10, 2009 Well I'll go and grab skydiver. I will take bids on Saturday or maybe that Haro Add I'm about to buy could be traded for it Stephan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zep 0 #12 June 10, 2009 why 12.01 why not midnight, not that I care I just find it strangely annoying that extra minute we have to wait. Gone fishing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hausse 0 #13 June 10, 2009 I'd assume it starts 12.00.01 or something like that. Not that it's an issue as the servers will prob crash about 12.00.30 and not be back up till like 6pm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muenkel 0 #14 June 12, 2009 Quote why 12.01 why not midnight, not that I care I just find it strangely annoying that extra minute we have to wait. You know, the time of my birth was 12:01am. I assume my mother found that extra minute to be quite annoying also. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about, TheZep Nice idea thanks, I've now gone for something else, a little more conventional. So... I got http://www.facebook.com/petershankman a few weeks ago for my fan page. Logged on at 12:01am to get http://www.facebook.com/shankman for my personal page. Got it. It's propagating in some cities/countries, not all. I'm sure it will, though.
