blurred out certain elements |
Click here to see a bigger picture of the new Facebook profile (though I had to cut the length of the image).
Note that it doesn't look very attractive, but that's probably because the pictures on my wall sucks. I've seen it live on other profiles, and they look great. I like it.
A lot of people are tired of the constant updates/revamps in Facebook and are thinking of stopping the use of the service but the new Timeline has the opposite effect on me. This is actually the first time I'm enticed with the idea of using Facebook. As you can see from my wall posts above, I mainly use Facebook just for the games. I don't really share or do anything too personal on Facebook. The new Timeline profile feels like a scrapbook and will make backtracking posts easier now (as opposed to clicking "Older Posts" since the months/years are archived on the right side of the profile). I also like the cover feature (enabling you to place some sort of banner picture on your profile). It adds a bit of personality on your profile without going overboard (Unlike the HTML/CSS customizable profiles on other social networking sites. I remember getting annoyed on some profiles on Friendster and Myspace profiles that were crawling with animated gif's, background music, and videos).
The new Timeline is brimming with possibilities. I'm looking forward to see my friend's Timeline profile when Facebook starts to make this available to all users.
