Facebook recently announced the launching of the new face of Facebook, and with that came the feature called Timeline, a virtual scrapbook about your life through your Facebook profile. I've long been wanting to organize my life's history online, and I have finally got it.
Notes:
- Expect bugs. Timeline is not yet stable, considering that this is yet a beta/trial version.
- Not all users have this (yet), so expect that not everybody can see how your Timeline looks.
- Be sure that your Facebook account is verified (via phone or credit card).
To enable Timeline into your profile, all you need is to follow these steps:
1. Login to your Facebook account and enable Facebook Developer. (Be sure to allow permission to the app to access your profile.)
2. After granting permission to the app, you will be redirected to your Developers page. Now, create a new app. (See image below.)
(Be sure to fill up App Namespace, although it is not necessary for your timeline but it is required for the app to function properly.)
3. After creating the app, you will be redirected to your Developers page. (See image below.)
4. Now switch to the Open Graph tab right below the Settings tab.

5. Fill in the required data and you're DONE.
6. Allow a few minutes for the App to take effect and return to your profile. Look for the invitation to try Timeline right at the very top of your profile.
Hit the Get it Now button and your Facebook Timeline is good to go. After enabling Timeline, your Facebook profile will now have a new look. (See image below.)
To add a header image, add a photo of your choice by pressing the Add a Cover button and upload the image of your choice.
Good luck and enjoy your new Facebook Timeline.
