This weekend there was a flurry of activity and messages and collaboration between strangers all over as businesses tried to gain enough fans on their Facebook Page to create a vanity url for it.
Facebook changed the rules last minute and upped the ante from 25 fans to 100.  Sunday night was a busy night online for many… but if you have yet to reach your goal and are looking for a short url to use for this same purpose, why not add the Memorable Web Address to your Facebook Page?

It’s there,  it’s available to everyone and it can be customized as you wish. Ours is http://companies.to/timeontaskva.

Simply sign in to Facebook, click browse applications on the bottom left menu bar and look for Memorable Web address. You can assign one to your personal profile as well. For people with a more common name, it may be an option if you missed out on your facebook username a few weeks ago.

Once you add this to your Page, go to the page and hit edit, under your page profile picture.  It is in this area that you will scroll down the list of applications on your page. Once you find Memorable Web address, click edit and it is in here you can assign the address to your page.

Great thing about the Web 2.0 world, someone is always using their brains and talent to create applciations that help out others.

Any questions using this, feel free to leave a comment and I will help you out as best I can!
