Redefine Your Facebook Just In A Minute...It Is Amazing!!!

There is yet another massive change going to happen after tiker, close friends etc features @Facebook. This time it is Timeline and the way your profile will look like. This feature is available with FB developers only till date but 'you can have it' in a matter of minute by becoming a developer, seriously it will take you a minute or so to call yourself as developer on Fb. Facebook Timeline Redefines Your Facebook. Look at the marked changes of my profile in the two pics below. 






















I know, u wanna have it too, ok as you wish. You just have to  complete a few very easy steps on Fb. 





The steps are:


First, you'll need to go to the Facebook developer page, which is a part of your Facebook account. Make sure you're logged into your Facebook account, and then simply follow this link to get started.






1. When you get here via the link, click "allow."
















2. Click "create new app"
    















3. Name it whatever you want, and give it whatever namespace you'd like...it doesn't matter. Click the checkbox "I agree to the platform privacy policy." And then click Continue, pass the security check by filling in the Captcha, and you'll be ready for the next step.










4. Now you'll reach the below screen, where you'll need to click "Open Graph" on the left side.


5. You'll see the next screen, entitled "Get Started with Open Graph" fill in anything you want (e.g i am awesome and cool OR read a book) in those fields under the heading "start by defining one action than one object for your app." Click Get Started.


6. On this screen, do nothing except scroll to the bottom and click "Save Changes and Next." Do the same thing on the next screen.

7. You'll be taken to this screen. Wait few seconds, and then go to your Facebook homepage. That's where you'll be invited to enable Timeline. Be patient at this point. sometimes it requires you to wait before the changes take effect.
















8. When you go back to your Facebook homepage, you'll see this. Success! Click Get It Now, and you're in!


















You've Done It!
Here's where you play with your timeline or customize it, and when you click Publish Now, your Timeline goes live.
  • When will we be able to opt into the Timeline without the need for going through these developers' steps? Stefan Parker, Facebook UI Engineer on Quora replied, "There is no set date though."
  • FB Timeline Definition: Share and highlight your most memorable posts, photos and life events on your timeline. This is where you can tell your story from beginning, to middle, to now.

STEVE JOBS: QUOTES


Steve Jobs was many things: an innovator of ideas, an inventor of products, an entrepreneur who knew how to build a multi-billion dollar business, and a rare individual with the capability to see the future. Did you know that Steve Jobs has 317 patents to his name? His name appears on the patent for the first iPod design. His name is on the patents of various laptop designs.




  •  "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."- Steve Jobs
  • "You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle."- Steve Jobs
  • "Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ... Stay hungry. Stay foolish." - Steve Jobs      

  •  “We care about every user, and we’re not going to stop until every one of them is happy.” on  Antenna problem of the iPhone 4.  You may remember it better as Antennagate.
  • “I’m convinced that about half of what separates the successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance,” Jobs once said in an interview in 1995.
