Facebook Gold Rush (or username rush)

got my name (first and last, tried for first only... yeah right), bet you didn't get yours.

 

I was one of the lame ones who waited for the countdown. Someone got my first name when I checked availability. Got my first + last though!

 

thanks for reminding me!

 

/rynobucket

just like myspace

 

did I miss something? it's just a link to facebook registry?

 

Got it, punks!

 

Truth is, I couldn't care much less about this...but I went ahead and registered first + last just for the hell of it.

It's funny though, how these social networking sites are always one-upping and copycatting each other. Status updates, top friends, custom URL's, etc.

 

thanks for the heads up...got my name + number

 

I got my last name. Could have had first and last but I wanted to keep it as short as possible.

 

Sweet. I got ScriboErgoSum.

 

I don't get it. What's the username? What i use to sign in?

My facebook already says my full name on it.

 

Shocked Shaud wasn't taken.

Well it is now.

 

I realized after registering my first + last name, that my first name wasn't even taken yet

 

I got my first and last. I've already got me@, my first and last @mac.com and @me.com, and my twitter is twitter.com/my first and last.

 

The username is basically just a link that makes it "easier" for others to access your page, i.e. they can just type in "facebook.com/uprising" in their address bar.

 

Cool I got my first and middle name...julioxadrian

I could have done it without the x...but it matches the rest of my accounts.

 

Got my first name. First Gmail, now Facebook.

 

Thanks for this MIG.
