Facebook has announced that it will begin letting its members use their full names in online addresses for profile pages at the popular online social networking service.

It says profile addresses - or URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) - that are changed to the personalised format will consist of facebook.com/ followed in each case by a user's name.

Facebook designer Blaise DiPersia, points out that, “This way people will have an easy-to-remember way to find you."

Facebook users will be able to start claiming personalised URLs on a first-come, first-served basis beginning from 13 June 2009.
