Manchester United, Burberry unveil Timeline profile pages on Facebook

London, Mar 1 (ANI): Social networking giant Facebook has rolled out its new profile page Timeline to brands such as Manchester United and Burberry, allowing them to chart their entire commercial history in one place.

Manchester United, Burberry and Dove updated their brands page on the website to the new style, which until now has only been reserved for Facebook users.

The new layout allows users to share their entire life history in one scrollable page.

British fashion house Burberry's 'Timeline' now includes milestones from the company's founding in 1856 through to live streams of its latest fashion shows.

While Manchester United's page is published in 18 languages and more than 300 new pieces of content have been added to allow fans to scroll through its 134-year history, The Telegraph reports.

Facebook's founder Mark Zuckerberg earlier said that Timeline allows users a much more visually impactful profile and the ability to share the story of their whole lives.

"Millions of people curate stories of their lives on Facebook every day and have no way to share them once they fall off your profile page...we have been working on 'timeline' all year...it's the story of your life and completely new way to express yourself," he had said.

The new layout will soon become compulsory for the site's 850 million members. (ANI)
