Many 'nobodies' like me have been offered our own custom G+ URL…
… but what about +Karin Nelson +Sandra Parlow & +Tamara Pruessner ? Ignored, left out in the cold, second-class G+ citizens!!!!
So… until they are allowed to join the ranks of the rest of us who have managed to get our fancy shmancy URL, like http://google.com/+DaveBell , I have changed my cover photo to my G+ User ID.
Please use this ID number when referring to me in a post (or casual conversation)… remember.. mine is the one that ends with a 2
+Vic Gundotra are you listening?
(Ok.. I know a roll-out may take a few days 😉

lol! +Dave Bell that's so funny!!
You're amazing!!! ha ah aha!!!
and thanks for looking out for us numbered nobodies!!!
ROFLMAO!!!!!! You just crack me up, +Dave Bell! Absolutely crack me up. LOL!!
Oh wait… #105845261210914905032, you absolutely crack me up! 😀
This could be the beginning of a really interesting trend here on G+. Wouldn't you agree #107494834634231938072, #114764567692252908296, and #1058452612110914905032?
Yeah…… lol
I'm going to assume one of those numbers is me?? Lol!
Can I be known as #314159265358979323846? PWEEEZE 😉
Yep, +Sandra Parlow, if you put this in your browser's address bar… you'll end up at your G+ page: https://plus.google.com/114764567692252908296
Yes, +Joe McDonald, (I mean #114611456210780217094), I'm sure it will catch on.
On a somewhat related note… that's one thing I like about mentioning someone in FB that I wish I could do here… start +Mentioning them, select the appropriate person, then backspace over the last name.
Paragraphs read so much more smoothly if you don't have the full names of every person mentioned… while still retaining the click-link on their first name.
Creative and pretty funny….don't you hate waiting for the phased roll-outs. Particularly when you are the last on the list! Signed, #111469503092879234346
A very well-placed comment! Made me chuckle.
They offered me one but it was conditioned on me having a working cell phone. I don't and won't.
My friends call me Cooksey but you can call me 103202760473534065366 if you like…
+Ralph Cooksey-Talbott, you may be able to set it up to work with a Google Voice number.
Looks like my work is mostly done 🙂+Karin Nelson & +Sandra Parlow are now with us..
.. Have you tried again +Tamara Pruessner?
You're our hero, Dave!!!
Hahaha, yeah, +Sandra Parlow, like I really had anything to do with it!
You Da Man!!!
Even though I wasn't in that list, I am now also awesome with an actual name in my user URL. 😀 I'm willing to bet that +Tamara Pruessner has just not accepted as they look to be rolling them out to a broad group right now.
I only use my special powers for good!
Thanks +Dave Bell that worked perfectly! There are several other wickets that presume I have a cell phone which I can now complete using that service.
