Facebook Timeline: The New Facebook Profile

Whether you are one that embraces change or someone who shuns it, Facebook Profiles are changing.  For one, you will no longer have a profile.  You will have a timeline.  And it starts of course, where you were born.

Another change is that you can add to your 'timeline' from any date.  So in my case, I went back to August 2000 and added that 'I moved to South Florida.'  Wow.  No one knew.  Now they do.

My favorite change so far is the fact that from my profile I can listen and control music.

Even though the controls are right on Facebook, the player is actually running on your computer via Spotify (or whatever application you install).  You can see my player as the green dot in the bottom right corner, along with what the new homepage timeline looks like.

My least favorite - but I see the long-term benefit - is the automatic sharing of articles that you read from applications that you have installed to your profile, or songs that you listen to without clicking anything. And a lot of other automatic sharing.

That sums up a few of the big changes.  I will add/edit

You can get the new timeline from this link, just click the red 'Try the Timeline' button on the bottom right.
