A Brief Introduction
We love Facebook. We think it’s one of the best ways to keep in touch with friends and family that most of us might not see otherwise. Facebook’s timeline is great. It enables you to organize your posts chronologically and make your own timeline…. sort of.
What we don’t understand is why we can’t place posts exactly where we want to on the Timeline. Shouldn’t someone be able to post pictures of their fifth birthday party, well, when they were five years old? Shouldn’t pictures from a person’s high school graduation, which they would love to share with my old friends, appear on my Timeline when they graduated high school? Simple, right?
Well, it’s not so simple; at least not yet.
The Timeliner is a simple app that helps you organize your Facebook page chronologically by placing your posts exactly where they belong on the timeline. Now pictures, videos, links and posts appear on the exact date in which they occurred essentially turning your Facebook timeline into a virtual scrapbook.
Now, all you have to do is take a post from your smart phone or tablet and with one click place it where you want on your Timeline, and it’ll stay there. Now you can organize and share your memories from the past with the people that matter. And maybe connect with that kid that always picked on you when you were in third grade.
FAQ
What is The Timeliner?
The Timeliner is an app that integrates with Facebook’s Timeline in a new and exciting way. It allows you to post pretty much anything you want —pictures, images, videos, whatever — exactly where they belong on your Facebook Timeline.
How does The Timeliner work?
It’s simple. You create a memory, and then choose the date where it will appear on your Facebook Timeline. Got a picture from your 1999 high school graduation? The Timeliner allows you to put that picture on the exact day where you made your parents so proud. Now you can share your life with family and friends, even the memories that occurred before you discovered Facebook.
How did you come up with idea for The Timeliner?
We all use Facebook. We think it’s a great way to connect with family and friends, but think something’s missing. We can’t figure out how to put a post where it really belongs on our Timeline; we have all this empty space below the date we first registered as a Facebook user. What a waste.
What platforms are compatible with The Timeliner?
The Timeliner will be compatible with iOS and Android phones and tablets.
How do I download The Timeliner?
The app will be available in the App Store and Google Play (for Android devices.)
How much does The Timeliner cost?
The Timeliner will be completely free to download.
