Improvements to Timeline

by Rose Yao

Today we’re rolling out improvements to timeline that help you express what’s important to you.

A place for things you care about
Now it’s easier to organize the things you care about on your About page. Redesigned sections give you one place to add music, movies, TV shows and books that interest you, alongside your photos and friends.

If you’re a movie buff, you can add your favorites to your movies section or use apps like Flixster and Netflix to share what you’re watching.

If you’re an avid reader, you can keep track of the books you want to read or add more with Goodreads.

_

If you see a book a friend read recently, you can add it to your books section by clicking the add button.

You can also add other apps to share more things you do. For example, you can include your Instagram photo stream as a section on your timeline. If you ever want to remove an app from your About page, visit your Activity Log.

A cleaner layout
We heard from you that the current timeline layout is sometimes hard to read. Starting today, all posts are on the right side of your timeline, with photos, music and other recent activity on the left.

We’ll continue rolling this out in the coming weeks. Learn more about these improvements in the Help Center.
