Ready or not, here it comes: Timeline takes over Facebook today

[Corey]

After being greeted with mixed reactions, millions of users have warmed up to Facebook’s new layout, dubbed Timeline. The new face of Facebook places all of a user’s interactions with the social network on the profile page in reverse chronological order, giving friends a single destination with infinite scrolling on which they can observe all status updates, photos, wall posts and more. While Facebook tried its best to make the transition an easy one, the company said in January that the slow march to making Timeline a requirement was underway. As of Friday, Timeline is no longer an option and those users who have not already made the switch will be forced to do so.

while no one is forcing anyone to use facebook, a part of user centric design is to give users as much choice as possible. I do not see a problem in having two different themes available for facebook users, rather than force people to use a theme that they dont want to use.

At first I didn't like the timeline profile because it looked all clustered and hard to follow. Now it seems pretty cool, and I can go back to three years ago when I started using Facebook and now I can laugh at my stupid status updates

 

Also pretty cool with the check-in map. I like that the most, and will like it more when I travel in the summer
