Not really. My username is po...@joindiaspora.com which is a pretty sucky username to be honest. The idea of a federated system is you could setup your own diaspora instance, and call yourself whatever you like. So I could register a domain and be a...@familypopey.com or something nice and short if I choose. I could keep that to just my family. Or I could in theory allow other people on it. Registering at Joindiaspora.com just means you have a presence _there_ it doesn't have to be your Canonical presence or indeed your only one.
