Until now I am using the old Facebook wall. I chose not to use Timeline. I've seen it with my friends and other Facebook friends but I honestly do not like it. It's complicated and not appealing for me. I still prefer the old style. How about you? Do you like Timeline? Are you using it now?

Hi aicasalinks, Yes I am using Facebook time line, there are couple of reasons to use the same . Overall its look and fill is fabulous, we ca add a bigger picture as a cover picture and the most and important thing for me is to find outs the wall post by year and month.Previously we need to scroll down all the days to to find out the wall posts, but now days if we can remember the month and year we can easily find the posts by TIME LINE... Hats off to Face Book for implement the Time Line !!

I'm using timeline. I think it's cool, but what can i do we have different tastes. But i find it similar to multiply.com. I'm not really annoyed or bothered about it. Although i heard a lot of complains about it. It became more complicated and messy as they say. But anyways, i rarely open my account so it's ok. LOL.

When i go onto a friends wall and im trying to find were to look at there info or there photos i get confused and i would rather stick to the old facebook so i dont get others confused when there looking at my page. It wont confuse me either when im trying to look at stuff on my page as well and for me get things done on my page i dont want to be confused.

Greetings! Facebook time has been around for a few months now. I have seen my friends use it already. But, I find it annoying and harder to browse my friend's profiles due to this Timeline thing. I 100% prefer the old style, why? It is simple and user friendly.

Yes, I'm currently using Timeline on Facebook. I'm kinda bit bored on how my it looks like before so I changed it. Mark Zuckerberg announce that all Facebook accounts will change into Timeline. It may be hard to adjust but as time passes by you will get used to it.

I used timeline in my old fb account,.. But I found it not interesting at all, You cant hide anything and your photos can be seen in large size, therefore I have no choice but to make another FB account.. Im just little bit upset because I have many fiends in my old FB and I have to start the whole process again,, but its okay, atleAST Timeline is gone :)

I have seen these and heard of them but I do not use it. My friend says he hates it and its useless. I think the regular Facebook seems to have more information on it then the timeline. It seems to be more difficult to find things on there as well. I tried looking for it for my own profile and I can not find the button to switch it to try it.

I am actually on the new facebook timeline accidentally (well out of curiousity) It gave me a notification about the new timeline thing and tried it. When I successfully changed my profile to the new timeline, I was so confused and not impressed. I felt like everything is all cluttered.

I'm not sure what the difference is (remind me to ask you below), but I think it was put in because the people who 'do the most work' (and thus 'make the most money') don't have time to steer their desktop-computers over to the big hangout-site that Facebook became.
That is, Timeline is designed for wireless-access to FB (I've even seen--in Internet Retailer Magazine--how they've added a new feature to FB that lets wireless-users 'post' links to the manufacturers of the products they buy right-when they buy them).
Perhaps cable-internet usage is headed the way of the dinosaur (like telephone-line-internet). And that leave me a foggy old fogy; I don't know about wireless, but my machine (with cable-internet) seems to NEED to 'count' every single thing that happens---never-minding the ONE LITTLE THING I'm trying to do with it (usually typing, sometimes directing it to another page ... ALWAYS interrupted if someone somewhere enters something new on the page I'm interacting with )
... oh, what IS the difference between Timeline and "the old style"?

After reading the first page , most of the responds were against the facebook time-line . At the second page , some responds were in favor of time line ...
I personally use the old facebook wall and the time-line is confusing me. I want just to have all the options about the user at the same place : his pictures , his friends , his info and etc ... with the time-line I just have to read everything and look for it. Most of the time i'm concerned about the here and now , not about the old posts or pictures.

Some of my friends use timeline now in Facebook but others prefer to the old style which includes me.Some who are using timeline now wanted to go back in to the old one but doesn't know how.I think timeline is quit complicated for me, I guess before I don't use it and not used to it.I find it also quite slow in loading stuff cause it was categorized by months.
I guess it would be base on the person if whether they will used to it or not.For me, I more prefer to use the old style.
