I have questions/concerns about the new FB Timeline.? - calmrailway769 - 03-24-2014 11:35 AM

So I realize by reading 2 articles about the new Facebook Timeline feature. I'm cool with change and everyone on my friend's list already can see my posts and photos. Otherwise I wouldn't friend them or I would have blocked them. My concern is the people who are NOT my friend and those I have blocked. Will they now be able to see my profile and my post history and photos. If that is the case, I'm thinking Myspace and google+ are going to gain more users. We block people because we don't want them in our business.

the privacy settings for the timeline profile are exactly the same as the ones in the old format, the only real perceivable difference is that older posts are easy to find now, whereas before they were very difficult to find

in addition, if you have been using facebook for a long time, your older posts are probably set to PUBLIC instead of FRIENDS - but there's an easy fix for that

go to privacy settings and go to "limit past posts" - that changes all your status's which are public to friends only
