speaking of the fb timeline
I have so many questions.
I don't want people to know if I've played words with friends six times today.
And if someone now posts on your timeline, is that the same thing as posting on your wall?
HALP ME UNDERSTAND CHANGE

I just found this on FB.
What is this timeline thing? Are they going back through your entire history on there and tracking how your life has changed? Does it include things like job changes or just relationships?
I cancelled my Facebook back in September because it was getting to be a bit too much with the everyone knows everything about everyone else... and I believe this timeline is going to make me even more self righteous about my choice.
It's basically like a scrapbook of your life on facebook. It puts all your statuses together during periods of time in your life and highlights your most important information/updates. It includes schools, jobs, relationships, etc., but it only posts what you've told FB over time. You can add more information if you want.
That's my understanding of it anyways.
Can you go back and edit/hide stuff so it doesn't show? Or opt out of the feature entirely?
I'm rather happy that I suspended my account during my divorce (and I'm rarely on it now). XH's should prove to be interesting. I wonder if his overlap in relationships will show up for the world to see.
I'm hoping I can just hide years from people. My fb has gotten much tamer from the beginning, and I don't think I want the years 2007 and 2008 out there for the world to see...like my MIL...
I don't really want to delete it, because it is freaking hilarious.
I think you can, but I think you might have to change the privacy settings for each individual update?
First of all, thank goodness I was already married by the time I got FB. My high school and early college years definitely don't need to be displayed in gory detail for my coworkers and in-laws to see.
Second, I may end up only using FB from my phone once timeline goes live...my admittedly ancient computer doesn't seem to like it.
Can you opt out of it all together or does everyone have to switch?
This is the future of FB. It's not that bad actually. I think it looks cool.
Unfortunately no, I think everyone will be switched over next week on December 22nd.
It's my birthday present. Everone's everything will be all over the place, everywhere.
*rubs hands together with glee* Thanks, Mark.
