Yeah I don't really get why you don't like it

It lets you put a picture of nature as a cover photo and look back at old posts

Why not?

There's seriously nothing wrong with Timeline.

They could've done that without overhauling the whole layout though

I don't like that it doesn't let you see what people are posting on other people's walls, or that it does let you easily check stupid stuff you were doing four or five years ago.

I like how I can look back in time with the Timeline too, but I don't like how my Facebook-friends can do the same with mine. I really wish there was a privacy-option for content on your account after a certain period of time (anything over a year old could be blocked in my ideal world, for example).

It's not like you couldn't look at your old stuff before Timeline, and Timeline's layout totally blows. I will be the last holdout.

Depends on which things.

You have to be really stuck in the past to go as far as to dig in your old facebook posts.

Nobody post important stuff on their walls!

This. I mean sure, you could already do that; on a mission to like every single thing on one guy's wall I went all the way to 2007 when he initially signed up for Fb. But it just makes it way too easy now, and there's no point to it. Makes me feel like I need to delete everything going back. Memorable statuses were bad enough in regards to reminding people of stupid things said in like, sophomore year of high school that were thought to be witty and cool back then.

I don't see how it matters. Unless you spend an inordinate amount of time staring at your profile or something.

Most of the time I spend on Facebook is spent on my news feed.

Yes. I'm glad I have all my old conversations with pretty much everyone in the last 4-5 years. Mafia chats are great, too.

The problem with Timeline is... that's IT'S NOT A ****ING LINE!

The old Facebook system is ALREADY a timeline. It has the topmost story, which represents the thing that happened most recently, and every post below it goes back a little bit more in time. THAT is a timeline.

"Timeline" has 2 columns, with posts split between both sides arbitrarily.... making it not a line.

Pretty much this.

I'm on my news feed 95% of the time, so I'm never even looking at the timeline, and when I am, the layout is the last thing I think about.
