Check out the new timeline of FACEBOOK

You may find it pretty awesome that the popular social networking website FACEBOOK has made a quirky move to launch a new timeline, where you can have a complete new look of your personal page. It has the plethora of things to amuse the subscribers by showing
them posts, pictures, and everything related to person in a chronological manner.  Nonetheless, the News Feed will stay the same.

So in a way, everything you have posted on facebook will be visible via this new timeline thingy. Basically, this new function will not reveal anything new but it will put your history into a new template. With the “old” Facebook view, your activity falls
off the page unless you click to see more. Now, Timeline will keep going back without clicks (you will not need to press the same option again and again). For better or worse, it is likely to make some of those old memories more evident to you and your Facebook
friends.

Since this new timeline will show your entire life on facebook, you don’t need to worry about some of the stuff you don’t want your friends to see. Therefore, if you don’t want some photos or certain posts or something else appearing in your Timeline, you
can always hide them. Drop-down privacy controls for each post allow you to either highlight a post or hide it.

Once you will switch to this new Timeline, it will give you seven days to edit it, tweak it and make it according to taste and choice. After seven days, the timeline will go live for all to see (before then, visitors to your page will see the old view).
If you’re smart and get it done before the seven-day period expires, you can manually publish it.

They say the change is always good. However, there are a plenty of people in this world who resist the temptation of being changed. Likewise, there might be some folks who wouldn’t want to switch to the new timeline. Well, if you want to change the look
of your current FB page you better not click the invitation from facebook. But Facebook says that, at some point, everyone will be switched over to this new view, whether they opt in or not. Of course, they’re not saying when that will be.

Caution

Facebook Timeline is a one-way thing. Once you go Timeline, you can’t go back. So be cautious that you will have to stick with it, once it’s streamlined.

Now coming to the important question, how get access to this new timeline. There are two ways: Either you’ll see a notification at the top of your page, inviting you to set it up, or you can simply search it online. Go facebooker, get it now.
