Did You Get It?
Well, like the rest of you I’m sure, I was caught up in the exciting ‘vanity’ frenzy last night just around midnight. I was on bus internet and an hour early, because I wasn’t actually sure what ‘midnight’ Facebook was referring to, but caught wind of it on Twitter, and nabbed up Facebook.com/brodyharper. And everything is right with the world.
So here’s the question. And sorry this is such a short post, but my internet has been spotty all day here in ‘Nowhere, MN’. Here goes. How many of you got the name they wanted or close? In fact, how about in the comments everyone leave their shiny new Facebook URL so we can all check them out. Sound good?
Ready? Go.

I wanted “tyler” for a username but it was taken right away (literally split seconds after the frenzy began), so I settled for first and last name.

We had nothing better to do than sit around at 9 on a Friday night and watch the clock and snatch those vanity urls… I nabbed http://facebook.com/linnybest and Dale’s is http://facebook.com.dalebest …and we discovered that Caedmon’s facebook has vanished..weird.
I only got to it a few hours ago, so I was VERY late. I didn’t get what I wanted (SunnySide), but it’s close enough.

Woo Hoo. +
I actually forgot all about the new URL thing & was just hanging out on Facebook & happened to see the link at the top of the page right around the time the “frenzy” started. So I clicked it & amazingly snatched up this little treasure:
http://www.facebook.com/kellygirl
Can not believe that was not taken yet!
Facebook was so nice to not allow the use of the _ for our vanity URL’s so I had to replace my _ with a . in my nice unique nick I have had for over 12 years with no issues! So on facebook I can be found as
http://www.facebook.com/race.12.1
unlike lots of other people-I was not shocked it wasn’t taken.
I got the one I wanted. http://www.facebook.com/kylebjohnson.
I got mine! Although I wasn’t too surprised… considering what my name is

DUH. Haha. And I JUST got it. So obviously, I’m the only weather girl around!

I wanted “Ant” but due to the 5 letter minimum I went with the standard “AntFreq” ( Ant & Freq ) Ant is me, Freq is a play on words. Frequency (career related) and Freak (me, well used to be).
Got mine this morning.

I am one of the dorks (along with several dork friends…the best of course) that got mine in the chaos of 12:01. It was also a hilarious time on twitter watching as everyone got their usernames

I got the one I want, http://www.facebook.com/jaysellers, so I now have three websites that I can fail to update on a regular basis.
Yep!

by the time I was at a computer connormcc was gone, but I did get http://www.facebook.com/connormccullough
I didn’t know anything about it. I was on last night and I saw the link about having your own URL, so I did. I’m http://www.facebook.com/JoshWax which is the first thing I tried for, so I’m happy.
Got mine!
http://www.facebook.com/redcedar
Got mine in the middle of the day. Evidently my name is not very common… facebook.com/allisongage
of course.
yep!

I did not even recall to try!
