    Apache has the UserDir directive for this purpose. The default
    setting makes it so that user fred can create a directory
    ~fred/public_html that is visible to the world as
    http://www.example.com/~fred/

    See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir
         http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/public_html.html

    If you don't want the '~' symbol to appear in your URLs, you can't use
    UserDir. However, if you have a regular layout of your user
    directories, you can use 'AliasMatch' to achive much the same effect:
