At 4pm this Saturday NZST, Facebook will allow custom user names for your profile.
E.g. www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=123456789
will now become
www.facebook.com/yourcustomwords
It's on a first come, first serve basis. So there is going to be a big rush to get the popular user names. So if you have a common name like John, you better hurry.
Here's the link to select your custom user name: http://www.facebook.com/username/
