yes - you can't opt out - "its the new way"

It keeps updating and it's really annoying. You get used to one lay out and then BOOM! it's changed.
This timeline thing has gone over the top. I can't remember what it was like when I first joined tbh.

Well apparentley you get a week long trial of it. However, I didn't see that when i 'opted in'. And now, I have it, no I can't.
You'll end up getting it!! They won't ask they'll just do it! It's rather annoying!

I've deleted my account, just can't be bothered with it. Was getting a bit bored with Facebook anyway, and this made me finally decide.

What's the facebook timeline?

its not a week long trial - its a week to get the privacy settings set up and for you to decide what you want "featured" and what you want "hidden". After a week, it will go live whether you want it to or not. It has been available for a short while now so some people will have set it up already

It's just an 'update'. But it's terrible.
I am contemplating deleting facebook but i'm addicted and I keep going back. That's the thing with facebook. They don't delete your account they 'hide' it until you get back. :l

SamanthaUK - You're sig is massive! You'll need to resize it or you'll get a slapped wrist by TFC.

Google "delete Facebook account" - if you follow the instructions and don't go into Facebook in any way, shape or form for 14 days, your account will be deleted properly and not hidden.

I was being tongue in cheek. I would never ever join Faceache. I have no interest in what people have been up to during the day, how happy/depressed they are, what their likes and dislikes are and I certainly have no desire for Faceache "friends". If I want to know about someone, I will ask them - if they want to know what I have been up to, they will ask me. I find it so vain that someone wants to write about themselves and then EXPECT people to be interested in them!! Sorry, rant over!!

I am able to go back through 2 years worth of "tracing adverts" and photos on my profile and repost them to the website

I hate it, but I reckon we can only resist so long, then they'll change it and we'll have no choice. Its inevitable, as usual!

Am I the only person who genuinely doesn't care what FB does as long as I can still upload photos and talk to my friends on chat? I like the timeline and the new layout, very neat and tidy

I deleted my account almost a year ago! Was doing my head in! Find it a bit like the devils radio! Hence why iv been on here a bit more than I was!

I've got it, and I don't actually mind the look of it, it's just the principal that people can look back at your facebook history at the click of a button now, whereas before if they wanted to go way back through your history it would have taken them hours! I actually quite like the layout, its just the 'privacy' issue i'm not so keen on!

I purposely switched to it earlier, I dont use facebook that much but I like the new timeline
I went back through my own history and it takes forever - if anyone were that desperate to do so, they're welcome too!

Ditto. It's only what was on there before in a different layout. But then there's nothing controversial on mine anyway, only pony pictures
