Before today, all the activities of a Facebook user would automatically appear on their Wall, including every new “Friend”, every “Like” and every“Comment”. There was no easy way to remove them except by pain-stakingly going through each one and deleting them one by one! Needless to say, many people gave up a long time ago, and just learned to live with it…
Facebook has finally listened and you can now hide all your Facebook Recent Activity EASILY from your wall using a new privacy feature. Here’s how to do it…
NOTE: Keep in mind that Facebook keeps changing their user interface, so if you cant find something mentioned in the instructions simply ask in the Comments below.
There are two different Edit Options; one is called “EDIT NEWS FEED SETTINGS” but the one we are interested in today is called “EDIT YOUR STORY PROFILE SETTINGS”
How To Hide All Your Recent Activity:
- After Login in to your Facebook Account, click on “Your Name” to go to your Profile Wall.
- Hover your mouse cursor (that means make your mouse arrow float) over the top-right-hand corner of the activity you wish to hide until a blue box with X on it appears.
- Click the X and you will see the new option to “Hide all…” Click it and all recent activity of that type (comments or likes or friends or questions, etc) will be hidden for as long as you wish.
Examples below:
“Comments”
“Likes”
Now everytime someone visits your Profile’s Wall they will not be able to snoop at your Facebook activity anymore.
Un-Hide Your Hidden Recent Activity:
This is a REVERSIBLE option so that if you change your mind later on, you can show your Recent Activity again by editing the options. First you need to scroll down the same page all the way to the bottom (the page that has your large Profile Picture, better known as your Wall or Profile Page). If Facebook loads more content then continue scrolling all the way down until you see the menu bar at the bottom of the page with the options named “Older Posts” and “Edit Options”. Click “Edit Options“ and unhide any activity by clicking the “X” removal button next to it, as shown below. Finally make sure to click “Save” for your actions to be stored otherwise the removal is not effective:

Facebook’s Timeline to Change Your Profile into an Auto-Biography!
Facebook’s Timeline to Change Your Profile into an Auto-Biography!
In Timeline, Facebook has found a new way of how you can show-case the story of your entire life on your profile. And not just any story but a story filled with videos, photos, snapshots, maps, sights and sounds. It’s a new way to look at your profile. In short, you can tell your whole life story with Facebook Timeline. This new profile is composed of three main features: Cover, Stories and Apps. The interest shown in this feature forecasts that Facebook will remain a popular site for some time but critics call it a privacy freak out!
Regardless of whether it’s a privacy violation horror story or a great way to present your self and how you were at different intervals of your life. The critics have blasted this new feature on the grounds that it may reveal some old stuff you wouldn’t want to appear again. “If I find that my personal, past posts are being posted again, I may just wipe everything out and devote my online time to G+. Is this what Zuckerberg is hoping for”, complained a Facebook user.
This isn't the only controversy surrounding its release, as a Chicago based website Timelines sued it. Their point was that these guys are not only using their name (well except one alphabet) but they have also redirected their Facebook Page to Facebook Timeline Page. Facebook already explained that the redirecting from Timelines to Timeline was caused by an error which has been removed now. Facebook has won the legal battle but some hard-core fans would still think that Facebook delayed is Facebook denied! (For days)
Love it (“like it” to be more Facebook) or hate it, you are still going to use it or talk about it, such is the kind of Facebook fever now a days. Although delayed Timeline is “coming soon” (as its page promises when you sign up for it) and Facebook founder Zuckerburg has given it an “Awesome”. But some fans have already found a way to use it before its release.
The Cover of your Timeline profile, will show a big image you select that you think represents you best. This will be the first thing people see when they look at your Timeline. So be sure to leave a big impact.
The main concept Stories in Timeline will share the past you have uploaded on Facebook. It will showcase your photos to make your profile a life album.
The Apps on the Timeline will show what kind of music you listen to, movies you watch and activities you do with a whole lot of new applications.
It will be advisable to review your older posts and “Hide from Timeline” the ones you don’t wish to reveal or simply remove them. Your Cover will be the best image to show-off your personality but you will still have your lil profile photo too. You can also include images from before you joined Facebook as of your childhood to put it on your Timeline. Maps will show what places you been to and when.
Only time will tell whether Timeline ends up “Awesome” or not. But it certainly has captured the imagination of the Facebook community.
