What's Timeline..?
TIMELINE is a crazy (and kind of creepy) omnibus look at everything that has ever happened in your Facebook lifespan. It’s like a story book of your life — or at least the online, documented parts. To be crisp "You can specify some date and view how your profile was and your friends activities on that time".
Actual Logic Behind Getting this
Facebook said that Timeline would be on the way for everyone sometime in the coming weeks, which is great and all, for everyone else. But it has already launched it for application developers alone. Here in the following steps we develop a dummy application and get it, Its 100% true friends, check out mine.
How To Get Timeline in My Account..?

How To Get Timeline in My Account..?
1. Log into Facebook
2. Enable developer mode, if you haven’t already. To do this, type “developer” into the Facebook search box, click the first result (it should be an app made by Facebook with a few hundred thousand users), and add the app.
3. Jump into the developer app (if Facebook doesn’t put you there automatically, it should be in your left-hand tool bar)
4. Click on 'Create new app' on the right top corner(don’t worry — you wont actually be submitting this for anyone else to see/use). Give your shiny new app any display name and namespace[ must definitly be filled ] you see fit and not taken by any other users. Read through and agree to the Platform Privacy agreement. This is the step you need to be verified for.
5. Ensure you’re in your new app’s main settings screen. You should see your app’s name near the top of the page
6. Look for the “Open Graph” header, and click the “Get Started using open graph” link.
Create a test action for your app, like “read” a “book”, or “eat” a “sandwich”
7. This should drop you into an action type configuration page. Change a few of the default settings (I changed the past tense of “read” to “redd” — again, only you can see this unless you try and submit your application to the public directory), and click through all three pages of settings
8. Wait 2-3 minutes
9. Go back to your Facebook homescreen. An invite to try Timeline should be waiting at the top of the page
And you’re done!
