Did you grab your Facebook vanity URL yet?

Interesting. But how did you do that?
Facebook doesn't show any hint on my profile/info page.
Its crazy that you have to search in google (it takes 2-3 URLs to check) to get http://www.facebook.com/username/ to get your own URL. Wired wide web.
Huh. FB prompted me the first time I logged in after the magic midnight hour. I didn't have to look for it, they came to me. Maybe they stopped?
FB prompted me for it as soon as logged in on Saturday morning so I took my usual "rrumaner".

Lustig, wie man sich so selbst nennen kann ;-)
More silly names.
Yep, I can't see how to get a vanity url either. I have no prompts on my homepage or profile page to get one even though friends still do.. Weird!

I didn’t get any prompts either, but it’s simple nonetheless:
http://www.facebook.com/username
@Ben that was easy!
Thank you.
Kids, why exactly am I putting a More > link there? ;-)
Volker, you've build an iq test ;)
Just trying to help those who are anchor ref.-challenged :)

Sure: http://www.facebook.com/start.aspx
Cool - worked like a charm, except wanted at least 5 letters. I'm now facebook.com/usorensen.
