New Facebook Profiles & Pages

For those who are on Facebook and also have created a page for a cause, business, or other group; then you know that there has been a transition to a new look for Facebook profiles and for pages that a person has created.  They have gone to what they call a timeline look and everything can be seen, or most likely found, back to when you joined Facebook or started the group page.  If you haven't gone to the new timeline format then let me warn you in advance that it can be quite addicting.  You can add events to your timeline, add a photo of the event to your timeline, and more.

I believe that one of the great things about Facebook is that it is continually evolving and changing.  There always seems to be something new to look forward to with remnants of the past to give you just enough of what you need to make a smooth transition from one format or change to the next.  Even with all of the changes they have made through the years Facebook still manages to allow the user to have control with various privacy settings, and that is appreciated by just about everyone.

As with everything in life I am sure there are some who will not like the new profile timeline or page timeline that Facebook is moving towards, and that is to be expected.  There is nothing in this  world that every human being likes.  For example, Jesus died on the cross for our sins so we could live eternally in heaven yet there are still people in the world that do not like him.  There are programs that exist in every country to help out families who are in need, yet there are people who think those programs are a waste of taxpayers and government money.  The bottom line is that no matter how good something looks or how easy to use it is there will always be someone that doesn't like it.  I encourage everyone out there to give the new timeline format on Facebook a chance.  You may like it.
