They don&#039;t just vanish as you add new stuff.&nbsp; Timeline is wider than your old profile, and it&#039;s a lot more visual. The first thing you&#039;ll notice is the giant photo right at the top. This is your cover, and it&#039;s completely up to you which of your photos you put here. As you scroll down past your cover, you&#039;ll see your posts, photos and life events as they happened in time. You choose what&#039;s featured on your timeline. You can star your favorites to double their size or hide things altogether.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>\n\tFacebook Timeline now allows you to:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\tMaintain a much more permanent &#039;landing page&#039; style profile, featuring an enormous, rectangular background image known as your &quot;Cover&quot;.&nbsp; You will want to start looking into the changes now, and begin selecting beautiful images to really highlight your interests and personality.&nbsp; Here&#039;s what my &quot;Cover&quot; looks like: <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ftv.chapman.edu\/images\/uploads\/blogs\/Timeline banner screenie.JPG\" width=\"425\" \/><br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tAlready, many sources have given us some <a href=\"http:\/\/thenextweb.com\/facebook\/2011\/12\/15\/5-ways-to-jazz-up-your-facebook-timeline-cover\/\">awesome ideas<\/a> of how to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/creative-facebook-timeline-covers\/\">creatively use this banner in unexpected ways<\/a>.<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"5\" height=\"211\" hspace=\"5\" src=\"http:\/\/ftv.chapman.edu\/images\/uploads\/blogs\/Timeline Map screenie.JPG\" style=\"float: right\" vspace=\"25\" width=\"250\" \/>You can now add specific kinds of life events as permanent markers of your life story.&nbsp; Everything from already-present options like relationship status, quotes, and friends will remain essentially the same;&nbsp; however, certain elements, like your home address, will now be displayed in a more dynamic way.&nbsp; Your home address will be displayed on a map pinpointing exactly where in the world you live, which many users find very startling &#8212; although this information has always been available, it&#039;s quite a different matter for all your friends to see a visual representation of your neighborhood. Here&#039;s my current, and home, town display (note that I have these publicly disabled on my profile, for privacy.&nbsp; But I trust you, dear blog readers.):<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"5\" height=\"225\" hspace=\"5\" src=\"http:\/\/ftv.chapman.edu\/images\/uploads\/blogs\/Timeline life events screenie 2.JPG\" style=\"float: right\" vspace=\"25\" width=\"301\" \/>Among other life events you may now pepper your profile with: add your birth story\/city\/year (Yes, the Timeline stretches as far back as you do!); family events\/births\/marriages populate from your connected family members; add broken bones and injuries, buying property, quitting an addiction, getting a tattoo and many more.&nbsp; Check out this detail of one of the many categories to choose from.<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tRevisit older posts, to add more detail or commentary<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tSee the places you&#039;ve checked into on Facebook Places (<a href=\"http:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2011\/12\/02\/technology\/gowalla_facebook\/index.htm\">and soon, Gowalla<\/a>) on a world map<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t&quot;Feature&quot; any story, post, or photo album, which greatly expands the amount of space and detail shown on your profile<br

screenie.JPG\" style=\"float: right\" vspace=\"25\" width=\"315\" \/>Many new controls over privacy, including manual lists, automatic lists created based on your actual Facebook activity (close friends, acquaintances, etc) [This feature was unveiled alongside Timeline but rolled out much sooner, likely to compete with Google+].&nbsp; Check out how I&#039;ve hidden this probably-offensive post from my Work friends, but made it easily accessible to my college buddies.&nbsp; <strong>All students looking to get jobs after graduating MUST learn to love this feature!&nbsp; Make your lists now.&nbsp; It will pay huge dividends in the future.<\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tA brand new kind of sharing, dubbed &quot;seamless sharing&quot;, via their expanded SocialGraph system, dubbed &quot;OpenGraph&quot;.&nbsp; This allows you to add <a href=\"http:\/\/spotify.com\">the music-playing Spotify app<\/a> to your profile (more on that below), and once authorized, all your friends will be able to see exactly what you&#039;re listening to in real-time &#8212; including the ability to comment on your song choice, or play the song alongside you directly from their own Facebook news feed!&nbsp; While the number of apps available immediately with the release is rather small, notably including <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/socialreader\">the Washington Post Social Reader<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wordswithfriends.com\/\">Words With Friends<\/a>, this is surely going to be a burgeoning area of developer excitement.&nbsp; It&#039;s even possible for us (Dodge College and\/or Chapman University) to develop apps that would share what you post to our forums, or even something as simple as allowing people to click &quot;I graduated!&quot; on our Facebook page, which would cause a specifically tailored message along the lines of &quot;[Student X] has just graduated in [your major] from Dodge College of Media Arts and Chapman University!&quot; with all the appropriate links to your profile, major, college, and university intact in your news feed.&nbsp; Weird &#8212; and neat!<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"5\" height=\"325\" hspace=\"5\" src=\"http:\/\/ftv.chapman.edu\/images\/uploads\/blogs\/Timeline music detail screenie(2).JPG\" style=\"float: right\" vspace=\"5\" width=\"270\" \/>The new music feature is really amazing, and definitely my favorite part of the new design.&nbsp; Check out the display here, and note the play buttons right next to the songs!&nbsp; (And if you haven&#039;t yet, give Kavinsky&#039;s &quot;Nightcall&quot; a listen &#8211; this is the title theme to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0780504\/\">Chapman-produced thriller <em>Drive<\/em> <\/a>which came out to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.metacritic.com\/movie\/drive\">stellar reviews earlier this fall<\/a>) <\/p>\n<p>\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tA bevy of other activity settings, to control what apps are displayed, what badges are public, and what parts of your timeline profile are visible to which of your connections.<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tPhoto albums have a brand new look, bigger images, clearer event info, and a reduced comments\/likes footprint, to truly allow the photos to shine.<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tA new &quot;Activity Log&quot; which shows literally <i>every single thing you do on Facebook, <\/i> or through Facebook Connect, Facebook Comments, and any OpenGraph enabled webpage or webapp.&nbsp; Discreet controls for every single story on your profile &#8212; this is a bit tedious, but especially for students who like to combine their pre-professional and personal lives, this will help weed out those pictures you wish you hadn&#039;t made public back when you were 16.<br \/>\n\t\t&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n\tAll in all, this represents a huge change for Facebook users, website and webapp developers, and &#8212; Facebook would hope &#8212; a major development in the way people share content through social media today.<\/p>\n<h3>\n\tWhat do you think of the changes?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<p>\n\tHave you already <a href=\"http:\/\/lifehacker.com\/5868411\/how-to-use-facebooks-new-timeline-feature-and-hide-your-embarrassing-old-posts\">updated your profile to the new design<\/a>?&nbsp; What are the best or most annoying features you&#039;ve encountered &#8212; either on the old profiles, or the new Timeline?&nbsp; I&#039;d love to hear how students are using this tool to help manage your increasingly social, interconnected lives.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAlso, don&#039;t forget to <a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/DodgeCollege\">connect with Dodge on Facebook<\/a>, and\/or <a
