Facebook forces users to switch to Timeline, making their pasts more visible
[link to www.washingtonpost.com]

NEW YORK — Facebook will start requiring people to switch to a new profile format known as Timeline, making photos, links and personal musings from the past much easier to find.

Timeline is essentially a scrapbook of your whole life on Facebook, compared with a snapshot of you today found on Facebook’s traditional profile page. Once activated, Timeline replaces the current profile.

I hate the 'new timeline', it's a mess. I swear fb does this to confuse things, wish they would just leave it alone.

If you don't like it, just don't go there. What is the problem? You know that if you post personal info on the web anywhere, it gets stored. What did you expect?

If you don't wanna share your private stuff, don't share it. It's not them, it's you who shares.

That's the simple solution, agreed, and that's why, IMHO, I find the information in my previous post far more disconcerting than Timeline.

It's because this makes it easier for prospective employers to suss out people who might have in the past displayed any unwillingness to be a good little slave.

Social media is there to make the job of the thought police easier.
