Timeline can be the reason to Quit Facebook?



According to Danah m Boyd (University of  California-Berkeley), social network sites can be defined as web-based services that allow individuals to construct a public or semi-public profile within a bounded system, articulate a list of other users with whom they share a connection, and  view and traverse their list of connections and those made by others within the system. The nature and nomenclature of these connections may vary from site to site


Mark Zuckenberg, the owner of facebook
I could blame  on the launch of timeline on Facebook why are the people start to quit facebook . Timeline was first implement to profile page that was launched September 2011. Facebook Timeline  for profile page was announced by the Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg and will be implemented to all facebook pages effective 31st March 2012.


One of the main reason that people dislike about this timeline is that no more custom landing page. You can't create a customized landing page for your page for fans and non-fan. The second one  that people hate about timeline is that Facebook Cover Limitation. It not allowed your friends to post contact information and call to action in the picture. Number three is that Facebook Timeline look fill up. Its look is confusing which may turn off some people to view your page.


According to what Eric Leist, a facebook user, he said, The facebook timeline will allow users to put their entire information (lives) on the site. Mark Zuckerberg says in his speech that you can “tell the whole story of your life on a single facebook page.”


With  all the respects, facebook timeline is one of the main reason why people start quitting facebook.
