Right now, you have a options to use vanity URLS for your profile pages and you may change it for the first time and as well you have by default one profiles too. That means rather than having a page located at http://www.google.com/s2/profiles/3223lkn23lkn or some nonsense, it now can reside at http://www.google.com/profiles/YOURGMAILNAME. If you have a account in Gmail or Picasa you may already have account based on user name.
