When news broke that Facebook would allow specific user names for accounts and pages, I was thrilled – and a little worried. Despite the fact that my taxgirl moniker is trademarked, it hasn’t stopped folks from registering the name on a host of social media sites. What if, I thought, someone beat me to the punch?
Fortunately, Facebook took this into consideration and allowed holders of intellectual property rights to restrict certain user names in advance. I signed taxgirl up right away – and then I waited.
I am pleased to announce that as of today, the mishmash of letters and numbers to get to my Facebook fan page is history! Now, all you have to do to visit is remember “Facebook” and “Taxgirl.” The new URL is https://www.facebook.com/taxgirl.
Why join? Um, because all the cool kids are doing? Or because it will lead to a life-changing experience? Eh, not so much. But you will have access to the taxgirl feed plus the skinny on upcoming contests, promos, and more; I’m also planning to launch some “Facebook only” features. And of course, you can write on the wall and share with other users!
I hope to see you around!
