What is Facebook Timeline Feature?
Facebook officially launched the latest Facebook Timeline feature on 15th December 2011 and it seems to be huge changes on Facebook. On 15th December they rolled out the Facebook Timeline to all its users and it was declared released. Now your profile is going to look more awesome and it is going to be open to the entire world to see what all is changing in your life.
Facebook Timeline gives you an easy way to rediscover the things you shared, and collect your most important moments. It also lets you share new experiences, like the music you listen to or the miles you run.
7-day review period of Facebook Timeline
When you upgrade to Facebook timeline, you’ll have seen seven days to review everything that appears on your Facebook timeline before anyone else can see it. You can also choose to publish your Facebook timeline at any time during the review period. If you decide to wait, your Facebook timeline will go live automatically after seven days. Your new Facebook Timeline will replace your profile, but all your stories and photos will still be there.
If you want to see how your Facebook Timeline appears to other people, click the gear menu at the top of your timeline, and select “View as”. You can choose to see how your timeline appears to a specific friend or the public.
Feature of Hide Stories
As you explore your Facebook timeline, you may see stories that you want to feature, like your graduation or the day you bought your first mobile. There might also be tuff that you want to remove or hide from your Facebook timeline.
To feature something on your timeline, roll over the story and click the star to expand it to tow columns. Or you can click the pencil to hide, delete or edit a post.
Use the privacy dropdown to adjust who can see any of your posts. You can even select “Only Me” for posts you want to keep but don’t want to others to see.
See all your Activity on Facebook Timeline
With Facebook Timeline, now you have access to a new tool called Activity Log. Your activity log is a place where you can review all your posts and activity, from today back to when you first started using Facebook. Only you can see your activity log.
You’ll see two dropdown menus next to each story in your activity log. The first lets you see and adjust the privacy of a post. The second lets you decide if you want the post to appear on your Facebook Timeline. You can feature, hide or delete any of your post.
To quick find the certain type of story, click the “All” dropdown at the top of your activity log and select what you’re looking for. For example, you can choose to see only photos or posts from apps.
Get Facebook Timeline Today with One Click

Starting today, Facebook Timeline will also be available on Android and m.facebook.com.
No matter where I look on the internet, all sources are saying the same thing – go to the Timeline page and click ‘Get it Now’ and I’m getting rather frustrated because a friend of mine and myself DO NO HAVE THAT BUTTON ANYWHERE!! If this Timeline was released to the world, why is it excluding us?
Hi Sanjan,
I switched to the Facebook timeline and meanwhile I like it. There’s no choice anyway. Great advice on how to do that.
Thanks for sharing.
Take care
