How would you go about generating unique user URL’s such as Facebook and Twitter have. For example, if I go to twitter.com/aggot my page appears.
Would this system generate a unique user page on the server or is it re-directing?

(new) Twitter uses JavaScript, but the Easiest solution would be to use .htaccess to redirect to something like `/users.php?id=. You can do this without unmasking the true URL. Take a look ad mod_rewrite for Apache.
