Hey…I know I don’t comment too much about social marketing…

…but there’s something happening that you need to know about.

As at Midnight Eastern Time (US time, that is) on June 12, Facebook are going to let you use a proper name to identify your home or profile page.

So instead of something weird and hard to remember, you can have…

http://www.Facebook.com/YourName

So, of course, you can use your own name or your business name.

BUT…in this virtual “land grab” it’s first come, first served.

So, if you haven’t already done so…

…might be a good idea to head on over to Facebook at…

http://www.facebook.com/username

…and “claim” your name or your business name.

UPDATE:

And this sort of thing is what you want to avoid with your name or business…
