And the services for turning Google Plus into a more customizable platform keep on being released. Today is the turn of MyPlus.Name, and (by all reckonings) it is a service that does something which is nothing short of vital. As you might probably guess by looking at how it is named, this is a service that enables Google Plus users to customize the actual URLs where their profile pages are hosted. So, instead of having a generic number that tells others nothing about the person such a profile belongs to, Google Plus users are enabled to have a profile that matches their names letter by letter. Or a profile that tells other about what they do for a living, or even the name of their own companies. It is all allowed.

And it is all done without batting an eyelid, too. All that the user has to do is to specify his Google Plus profile URL, and then pick the one he would like to have. There are no character restrictions of any kind, and the change will be immediately made effective. And it is even possible to register up to 5 different names for the same profile, so that you will be able to show different aspects of who you are and what you do more than easily.
