Thursday

Facebook shows off new "Timeline profiles, Apps and more.."

Facebook gave its News Feed a makeover Wednesday & many users got angry. How dare the social network suddenly change so much, after all? Well, we hope you saved some of your rage — because a lot more changes were announced at F8, Facebook's developer conference.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg took the stage at F8 to give his keynote speech at 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET on Thursday in order to share what's new & what's coming soon.

The first item on the keynote agenda? A redesigned profile page dubbed the "Timeline" which — according to Zuckerberg — is a way to present "the story of your life." When someone looks at your Timeline, he or she will be able to see summaries of the most important events in your personal history — instead of having to scroll through years of silly status updates.

The curious thing is that Timelines aren't limited to content you've previously posted on Facebook. Instead you can actually go in & add key events, images, & similar. You can essentially compile a visual diary.

You can augment your Timeline by using apps which track books you've read, movies you've watched, music you've listened to, & more. You can also highlight specific events or posts — which are being referred to as "Stories" — & feature them (or perhaps even hide them) in order to create what you feel is the best representation of your life.
