Facebook Recycles Feel-Good Timeline Video

Facebook is drawing more attention to its Timeline profile redesign via a feel-good video on its homepage that chronicles how users can use the site to archive their lives.

The video was first launched in September 2011 when the company announced it would be rolling out its new Timeline profile page design.

Facebook Timeline changes the default profile from a list of most recent updates to a complete summary of an entire life since birth. It includes photos, videos, status updates and locations visited. Users are encouraged to add life events that were not captured by Facebook, particularly those that occurred before they joined Facebook.

The new profile design has been met with mixed reviews, as many claimed the move was a part of a greater attempt by Facebook to capture user data and make its service more appealing to advertisers. Other major concerns involve privacy.

Facebook Timeline is still in the process of rolling out the design to its 800 million users.
