Wow, in less than an hour, Facebook will open up registration for a permanent username URL at http://www.facebook.com/username/. It's on a first-come, first-serve basis, so everyone's fair game. I don't use Facebook much, yet, except to play poker, but I can see the value for millions of users who depend on it to stay connected. I'm wondering whether Facebook will be able to handle the loads and loads of registrations that will sure to hit at launch time. I'm already there waiting for the countdown. May the fastest fingers get the best names!
