How To Disable Facebook Timeline

Timeline is a new feature that gives a new all new look to your Facebook profile. Timeline can be considered as a moving mosaic of photos, videos and other data arranged in order of time. That means you can know what your friend posted on his wall, tracking back the information exactly back to time when the data was posted, in short you can know everything from the time your friend started using Facebook.

Now timeline received a mixed response from Fb users, some welcoming it, some feeling it as a necessary burden to carry. Many of my friends wanted their old Facebook profiles back. I have been looking for a way to do so, which brings me to this post about how to disable Timeline. You can do away with your Timeline just by following the steps below :

*Note: It is important to tell all our viewers that Facebook Timeline is a server side feature and using below methods can deactivate this for your Profile and also for others but only visible to you.

GOOGLE CHROME users follow the steps below :

• Right-click on Chrome Browser application (shortcut) and then click “Properties”.

Facebook Changed Everyone’s Email to @Facebook.com; Here’s How to Fix Yours

Facebook just removed everyone's email address from their profile and replaced it with an @facebook.com email address without asking you. Here's how to easily fix the problem.


Facebook launched its own Email Service back in 2010, which was promptly forgotten by everyone. This morning, Forbes noticed that they removed everyone's email addresses from their profiles, replacing them with an @facebook.com email address instead (not Facebook's internal email address which they use for notifications and password resets, just the one listed on your profile). Luckily, it's easy to get your old email address back on your profile:

1. Click "About" on your profile and scroll down to your email address. Click "Edit" to change them.
2. Click on the circle next to your Facebook email address and change its setting to "Hidden From Timeline".
3. Click on the circle next to your other email addresses and change their settings to "Shown On Timeline".
4. Click the Save button at the bottom of the Edit popup (Don't forget this step).

That's all it takes. It's a really quick fix, but it was a big jerk move for Facebook to do this without asking permission, or even telling you that it happened. Spread this info around so people don't get stuck without any contact information, too, lest we lose the one aspect of Facebook that was still useful.

Update: A Facebook spokesperson has responded to everyone's questions on the subject, but they don't have much to say—except that yes, they have given everyone a Facebook email address and rolled out a "new setting that gives people the choice to decide which addresses they want to show on their timelines." They did not explain why (or even acknowledge) that all of these addresses were made default on people's profiles.

Facebook Launches Find Friends Nearby Feature [Updates]

Everyone’s favorite social network Facebook has launched yet another useful, yet controversial, feature. This time around it’s called Find Friends Nearby and it allows you to find potential Facebook friends who are near your current location.

According to Facebook developer Ryan Patterson the app is designed to make it easier to friend people who you meet in real life. “For me,” Ryan says, “the ideal use case of this product is one where when you’re out with a group of people whom you’ve recently met and want to stay in contact with”. The Find Friends Nearby feature will let you quickly locate the person standing next to you among the millions of people with profiles on Facebook.

Anyone with an incredibly generic name can quickly understand the appeal of this. For instance, telling someone to friend “Matt Smith” is nearly the same as telling them nothing. The immediacy of the new feature could be useful, as well, since you may not remember who you wanted to friend a few hours later when you sit down at your PC.

Critics have labeled this the “stalker app” but the feature is currently active only when you have the app open, so no one can find you if you aren’t also looking. And while the feature does let you send a friend request it does not provide detailed location information about the people found.

You should now be able to find this feature in the Other Apps section of your Facebook app on iOS and Android. If you do not see it, double-check that the app is updated to the latest version. The feature is also accessible via web browser.
