MORE [HERE](https://www.hypebot.com/bands-brands-hit-snag-registering-custom-facebook-url/).** Beginning this Saturday June 13th at \`12.01 AM EST (4:02 AM GST) registered Facebook users can current their current Facebook generated random url for one that more closely resembles their name. The new usernames are limited to alphanumeric characters or a period (".") and must be at least 5 characters long. So custom urls will look something like www.facebook.com/john.smith. or maybe www.facebook.com/yourband.com . While the change isn't mandatory yet, Facebook has 200 million users, so if you don't gab your url now someone else might. There is a [mechanism](http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show%5Fform=username%5Frights) to dispute the urls of trademark names, but who wants to go through that hassle. Get you Facebook URL starting this weekend at .
