Facebook Vanity URLs: The Countdown Begins

Facebook's move to allow its members to sign up for vanity URLs just after midnight tonight is stirring up a frenzy.

And it's potentially fueling a cottage industry for buying and selling accounts on social networks.

A Google search for "Facebook vanity URLs" earlier today turned up a sponsored link for Assetize.com, a company that currently lists Twitter accounts for sale such as @amazonsavers (listed for $1,250) and @24hourfitness (best offer).

See you at midnight!
