  • Facebook Launches Verified Accounts and Pseudonyms

    Posted Thu, 16 Feb 2012 03:07:29 by: techcrunch.com

    Facebook, a service built on real names and real identities, will tomorrow start allowing prominent public figures to verify their accounts and then opt to display a preferred nickname instead of their birth name. Those with verified accounts will gain more prominent placement in Facebook's "People To Subscribe To" suggestions. Verified accounts are not a departure from Facebook's policy that users sign up with their real name, as birth names will still be shown on a user's profile About page. Instead it's a way to ensure people don't subscribe to the public updates of impostors. It will also arm Facebook for its battle with Twitter to control the interest graph.
