After an extended wait, the much ballyhooed, much reviled Facebook Timeline is finally here, an official blog post Thursday announced to the world.
While the update has been available in some areas -- such as New Zealand last week -- for testing and developing purposes, beginning today, the new feature will be available to everyone everywhere.
Users looking to check out the service immediately can go to the Introducing Timeline page
and click "Get It Now" button near the bottom right. Otherwise, an
announcement will eventually appear at the top of your profile,
according to Facebook.
The world’s most prominent social network
hopes its latest digital makeover -- which aggregates and organizes your
profile chronologically -- will help you “rediscover the things you
shared, and collect your most important moments.
“It’s the heart of your Facebook experience,
completely rethought from the ground up,” Zuckerberg gushed when he
first introduced the feature druing this year’s f8 conference. “Timeline
is the story of your life.”
For those worried about what exactly from
their past might be popping up with the new profile, Facebook is giving
users up to seven days to review their new Timeline before it becomes
public.
