How avail a free @facebook.com Email address?
“Getting a free @facebook.com Email address is very easy”
Facebook's latest offering is the Facebook Email Service which is claimed to be the Gmail or Yahoo mail killer because of the quick emailing and social connectivity features. In order to get a email address like goharsh@facebook.com which is similar to gmail.com service, its suggested to check out the following tip.
To set up a free @facebook.com address, go to your Messages view and click the “Claim your Facebook email” link. Your email address will match your public username, for example:
Profile: facebook.com/username
Email: username@facebook.com
If you don't have a username yet, you can choose one when you create your email address.
Once you set up your email address, people can email you using any traditional email system (eg, Hotmail, Yahoo or Gmail), and the emails will be delivered to your Facebook Messages. When you send messages to external email addresses, the emails will be formatted to look like Facebook messages, including your name, your profile picture and your message.
One more use of this is that your homepage URL will become www.facebook.com/username/
Check out your existing URL of your facebook homepage after login. It will be having unrelated random symbols/alphabets. But after registering for facebook email it will comes to this format www.facebook.com/username
