Facebook will release its new Facebook profile designs to the public over the next few days. The update offers a range of new features. As the video above shows, users’ profile pages will be transformed into online scrapbooks known as “Timelines”. The pages will allow people to view their friend’s life stories, showing images of the most important parts of a person’s life from birth to the present day. Individuals can add images of themselves as a child and other important moments in their life which may currently not be on the social network.
Let us know your thoughts on the profile redesign below;

Timeline is awesome! You would have forgotten what you had posted few years back. Once you look into timeline it shows all the posts by time, which is cool.
I’m worried about the privacy issues, I’ve been Beta testing the Timeline for a few months now and what has really shocked me is that there is no default full privacy setting, you have to go post by post editing each permission and if like me you have FB for more than 6 years it will take you many days, I believe there that there should be a setting to let new friends only look back let’s say 1 year, and you could control how long each individual person can look back at.
The new changes are very unique, which helps FB stands out, especially after the introduction of Google+. I particularly like the timeline; I think it’s a really fun idea and the new image header lets people create a more personal profile, reflecting their personality, a bit like MySpace. Thumbs up!
