No one needs any of this.

But people want it.

But who wants all this information about themselves publicized? Are we allowed to have personal lives any more or we all just human ciphers?

 

[Alebrije]

I know I'm not the target market for this, but who really needs any of this crap?

That looks horrible. There's no visual heirarchy and it's a mess to digest. This replaces your profile?

 

[Enco]

This might actually be great if I remove around 50% of my 'friends'.

That way I'll feel safer with sharing stuff (only Zuck to worry about now).

 

[Chinner]

blame space do you need a hug

 

[roosters93]

This timeline is pretty cool and kind of crazy thinking about if you have all this stuff filled out and done up through your life what your kids would think looking at it. I mean I've only seen like 2 or 3 pictures of my parents when they were younger than 25 or so. It'd blow my mind to see a timeline like this of them, but I think by the time I'm having children they'll be able to read all this crap about me... weird.

i don't use facebook for my nonexistent kids though. i use it for my friends and people who aren't my friends that i know. i don't want them to know all this shit.

edit: zuckerberg thinks his dog is so funnay

 

[Korey]

Cover photo is a good idea though.

 

[Dead Prince]

dat shit fake is quite annoying.

Don't respond to yourself.

Is Timeline going to be the new profile? Or is it an option?

New profile I think

 

[Dead Prince]

new.

 

[Necronomikon]

Can't wait to see porn cover photos! =D

 

[Vgamer]

Is Timeline going to be the new profile? Or is it an option?

Good question. I clicked on that timeline link someone posted and there was a "sign up" option there. So it sounds like it may be optional for now maybe?? Not sure though.

Seems like Zuckerberg is trying hard to keep himself from laughing.

"Hey son, have I ever told you about that time in college I got wasted and took photos with a bunch of random skanks?"

 

[bluehat9]

So where do you see other people's status updates again?

"Hey son, have I ever told you about that time in college I got wasted and took photos with a bunch of random skanks?"

...and that's How I Met Your Mother.

 

[edgefusion]

And here is a losers timeline *switch to my profile*. Thanks Facebook, now everyone can see what a no-lifer I am. -_-

 

[Alebrije]

I don not like the changes, services that I do not need. Facebook should be just a tool to be in touch with friends and family (specially the ones that live to far) and no to show all your life as the Truman show.

 

[Dead Prince]

"SO... That's Timeline"


....
applause.

 

[SRG01]

Oh it's going to be the new profile? That's... huh. I thought it was going to be separate.

 

[Ermac]

blame space is my favorite gaffer

 

[Gomu Gomu]

So where do you see other people's status updates again?

In their.....timeline?

 

[JonathanEx]

I like the fact that Facebook have hired a UI designer.

I don't like that now I might as well just lock off all privacy to just make it easier with "MY ENTIRE LIFE" on there.

I don't want my entire life on there.

 

[NIghtWolf]

I like his shoes more then timeline.

You know you can stop using Facebook right?

 

[Davidion]

I like the general concept and philosophy behind it. I also don't see why in the world I'd want to share all of that information with everyone; this whole thing seems to function off of the idea that you'd want to share all of "your life" with everyone and that the main draw for people are their friends' pages as opposed to say, the news feed.

That having been said, it's a pretty big dynamic change. It seems great for celebrity/organization pages, at least.

Also, you can tell that Zuckerberg is trying hard as all fuck to improve his presentation skills, like sparks off the rails hard.

[Chinner]

after watching this video, and making a critical assessment of both timeline and mark zuckerberg, i have decided that yes, maybe there is no god afterall.

 

[MarkMclovin]

Time line of some kid?

 

[Frustrated_me]

Ugh I hate how much he's acting like steve jobs...

 

[roosters93]

talk about music shit next ffs

 

[ultron87]

My lack of photos is going to make my timeline look tremendously boring.

Just like my life. *emo*

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Looks cluttered as hell

 

[cabottemp]

[Enco]

Looking forward to the complaining. If people didn't like lists, this is gonna get ugllyyyyyyyy

[Levyne]

My lack of photos is going to make my timeline look tremendously boring.

My once every 2 weeks status updates and no photos notes or videos will be bathroom reading,

 

[SolKane]

Will the Timeline include all the days I jerked off twice??

Damn!

[Xrenity]

It's like putting you're whole life into Facebook.

I guess there are people that want this.

 

[SephCast]

Zuck is terrible at presenting.

 

[Dead Prince]

Still want an iPad app >:|

don't think you need one. just log into facebook.com and it'll be perfect fit. it's quite design for it.

 

[Davidion]

More passive engagements as opposed to the "like everything" approach is smart. Verbs
