Suggested addition to FAQ 202

We sometimes get support requests, often from non-LiveJournal users, asking "My friend gave me his username, but how do I find his journal?" FAQ 202 (How do I find people on LiveJournal?) is the most logical place for people to look for the answer, but it's not there. I'd propose adding something like the following at the beginning of FAQ 202:

If you know the username of the person you are looking for, you can find their journal at either of the following links, replacing exampleusername with their username:

http://www.livejournal.com/users/exampleusername/
http://www.livejournal.com/~exampleusername/

Alternately, you can use the "search" box in the top right corner of main LiveJournal pages to search for their username.
