Really? I don't know about that!

Are you sure about that?
The truth is â€“none of us HAVE personalized Facebook profile URLs. Unlike Myspace, Twitter, linkedin, flickr, and so on, Facebook didnâ€™t quite lace this one in there when they launched. Instead an application surfaced about two years ago that enables you to give yourself a customized profile URL, as well as give your groups and fan pages personalized links. Considering how important customization is in personal branding, I thought I would throw down a quick tutorial on how to add and use this application to give yourself a clean, name branded

1. First go to the Memorable Web Addresses for Profile, Page or Group Application.
2. Then on the right click â€œGo to Application.â€
3. It will redirect you to a screen, where you will have to allow the application access. Click â€œAllow.â€
4. You will be redirect to another screen where you will have to click â€œAdd to Info.â€
5. A layer will come up, and you will have to again agree to â€œAddâ€ this application.
6. The application is added to the bottom of your profile. You must go scroll down to it and click â€œKeep.â€
7. It is from here that you can customize a web address. You get three options:
- http://profile.to/YourChoice/
         - www.profile.to/YourChoice
         - http://apps.facebook.com/profiles/YourChoice/

For business pages, yep

"I tried to secure a name for my Page but Facebook said the Page was not eligible. What are the requirements?
All Pages are eligible to claim usernames if they have more than 25 fans."

To change fan page url then you will need 25 fans.

If you want to change your own profile to username then you need to change it through http://www.facebook.com/username
