Last Chance: Have You Set Your Timeline Yet?

This week is the last chance for Facebook Timeline procrastinators to switch over before Facebook does it for you.

This week we’re starting a new series titled “Last Chance.” Each week, we will find something readers in our area have one more chance to take care of before it’s too late.

To kick it off this week we have a big one. You have until the weekend to voluntary convert to Facebook’s Timeline. If you don’t, Facebook will do it for you. Brand pages will be converted on Friday and your personal page on Saturday.

I have to confess to being one of the procrastinators and will probably get around to doing the switch later in the week or just let Facebook do it for me! But I have been poking around the preview page and did upload the cover photo (I'll be changing that photo from time to time).

So, if you haven’t done it yet, this week is your last chance to take control of your own Facebook destiny. Here is a link to an article by Tech Soup that should help overcome some of those Facebook Timeline fears.

Editor's note: If you know of upcoming deadlines, scroll to the bottom of Cumming Patch, look for the "Contribute" header in the bottom right corner, click "Put an event on the calendar" or "Announce something to everyone," fill in all the fields, and your event, announcement, photos and videos will automatically go up on Patch.
