Even though I'm not a huge fan of timeline, like *SO* many other people, there is ONE good thing they implemented since giving birth to this monster, and that's the ability to post an image along the top of your wall and not make it so god-awful boring looking.
I think of timeline as being like 'Stalkerbook' now. Honestly, you can go to any friend's timeline and see precisely what they were doing on some day since they joined. If you were an obsessive stalker (don't mean you specifically, author of this thread), you'd have a field day with checking people's exact movements out.
Not good, Facebook (but keep the picture at the top bit....is what they should do....just realized this isn't Facebook).

You can't revert back....

there is no way to remove it - everyone is being converted to the timeline - it's the new look for facebook, not an optional update
this guide will help you learn how to use it
http://abrax.us/Facebook/TimelineGuide.php
it will take you a few days to get used to the changes, but overall, it's much better than the old profile
you can trick your browser into making it so you see your old profile, but everyone else will still be seeing your timeline profile, along with anything you dont want them seeing, and you wont be able to see anyone else's timeline profile then either

Its not possible to completely remove Timeline, but you can easily go back to viewing the old style profile pages without timeline, you just need to follow this simple guide:

This method is safe and it really works, you can tell this because it has over 41,000 "likes" on the page, and hundreds of positive comments from people who have got it to work.
