Short names
As you have already noticed , tonight the first hundred thousand users of VKontakte got the opportunity to register short names like this for free:
This feature has just become available to the first million registered. In the evening, all users of our social network will be able to take advantage of it - Pavel Durov will announce this in his blog . The names you register will be transformed into email addresses ( username@vkontakte.ru ) in a few months.
According to Durov, email will be integrated into users' private messages. We will speak about the features of the interface separately, as it is in the process of discussion. Now the VKontakte team is developing a spam filter based on the technology used in Gmail. Naturally, it will be applied not only to mail, but also to all VKontakte messages.
It should be immediately noted that only those users who have tied a mobile phone to their account will be able to register a short name for themselves. Together with short names, profiles of signed-up users are indexed from this point on search engines (depending on data privacy settings):

Have a nice day.
