If you follow me on Twitter, you noticed that I recently bought a home and that I was confused about the date of BlogIndiana. I’m happy to say that our move-in date and the blog conference are on separate weekends, so now you don’t have to help me move (you were planning on it right?). You can go to BlogIndiana at the IUPUI Campus Center on August 16th and 17th.
Slowly Facebook has disabled direct links to profiles. Originally you could link to
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=000000000.
All you had to do was copy and paste the URL from your address bar while you were logged into Facebook and you were good to go!
But the Facebookers disabled that.
If you want to keep all your information private, but want to post a link to add you as a friend, now you can do a search and limit it by id number:
http://www.facebook.com/s.php?k=100000080&id=000000000
To view the above link, you still have to login. If you don’t want users to have to log in and don’t mind submitting your profile to search engines, now you can create a public profile and link to it
http://www.facebook.com/p/First_Middle_LastName/000000000
I could not find anywhere that would list how to make this URL. I looked around and had to try the schema by example. It is as listed above with your profile id attached to the end instead of the “000000000″
