Facebook revamps profiles with 'Timeline'




Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg speaks Thursday at f8, the social network's annual conference.

  • Zuckerberg announced new features at a Facebook conference Thursday
(CNN) -- Facebook unveiled a new version of its website on Thursday that's based around the idea of a personal "timeline" rather than its standard profile pages.

"Timeline is a completely new aesthetic for Facebook," CEO Mark Zuckerberg said at the social network's annual conference in San Francisco.

The pages look more like blogs than a social-networking site. A large photo covers the top of the pages, stretching from one side of the screen to the other. And posts -- like photos, status updates and the locations a person visits -- show up below that, attached to a vertical and chronological timeline.

"We think it's an important next step to help you tell the story of your life," he said.

This new Timeline look will replace users' current profile pages -- but not their news feeds -- within several weeks. The world's largest social network, with 750 million users, just launched a new version of its homepages earlier this week.

Zuckerberg also said Facebook's reach continues to grow.

"For the first time ever, in a single day we had half a billion people use Facebook," he said.

There is so much crap on FB I'm hardly on there anymore. I agree they just get bored and start making changes. Regarding Timeline, kinda weird, I don't think I want everyone to know my life story.
