.htaccess twitter or facebook URL naming convention
- by Mike Silvis
For my Social Networking Site, I would like to build a facebook, or twitter similar URL rewriting naming convention.
Using Twitter as an example, they have pages labeled twitter.com/about and another page labeled twitter.com/{$username}
However, how do you differentiate between say a user who has registers on to our site as "about" then. From this we are going to have a server conflict between the user "about" and the page about.
What is the best way to handle this?
