HOW TO: Change Your [Ugly] Facebook Username

FacebookYou may want to know how to change that ugly URL that you got when you first signed up with Facebook into something more like www.facebook.com/yourname. Not only will it be easier for your friends to remember, but it’s important if you’re into personal branding in any way.

Facebook recently introduced some changes to make it easy to do change your username. Simply login (if you aren’t already) and go to your settings page at https://register.facebook.com/editaccount.php.

Once you are on your settings page, click “change” in the section called “Username” and click the “check availability” button. Be aware though, according to Facebook: “Choose your new username carefully. You can only change your username once.”

So don’t do this when you’ve had a few too many drinks!
