How To Enable Facebook Timeline Feature Easily


Hi Guys . As you all know that facebook has launched its new feature FACEBOOK TIME LINE which has been discussed in previous post.. so here i will tell all of you that how can u enable that feature easily on facebook step by step
During the f8 conference 2 days before, Mark Zuckerberg and his team announced a new feature called the Timeline - which is a visual representation of your life and the events surrounding it.
The feature is something totally new and wonderful, and in a unique way expresses a person’s identity. The feature is currently in beta and can beaccessedby developers only. This article shows how you can enable Timeline for your Facebook account.
Before I tell how you can enable the Facebook Timeline, let me explain you the various sections it has. The topmost portion of the timeline has a large space for a lead photo, which allows you to add an image to make your page look attractive. At the bottom-left it has your standard default overlapping display picture.
The next portion is called the Cover, which basically has your personal information, friends’ list, photos, “likes”, votes and so on. The next section serves as a dock for all youractivities(stories) you do on Facebook. Here the section is split into two columns which are presented with all the activities chronologically. It also contains the “Recent Activity” section and also a box to update your current status.
