"Nice to meet you!"
"Yeah, nice to meet you too! Say - what's your facebook page? I'll friend you."
The conversation above became possible on June 12, when Facebook started allowing unique usernames to profile pages. Now you can have a page like http://www.facebook.com/your.name. It has been said that more than 1,000,000 users claimed names within one hour of the service being announced.
One of the notable registered names was "default.aspx", belonging to Christine Shipley.
If you have a "desirable" name or want to sell your registered name, you might find a buyer on assetize.com, where you can put a registered name you own up for sale. For example, a recent check showed that the owner of www.facebook.com/rebate was trying to sell that name for $60,000.00.
I found it surprising that the names "www.facebook.com/god" and "www.facebook.com/stevejobs" were still unclaimed as of the publishing of this post.
