How To Enable Facebook Timeline Right This Second

I followed these steps and it worked (cool, I guess) but then I was instantly faced with some old conversations and relationships that I didn't want on my wall. It appears that Timeline doesn't respect the Block settings already in place...<p>I've since turned Timeline off again, but I'm afraid it will instantly turn back on next week when this goes public. Does anyone know if this is the case? Or will Timeline be an opt-in only option?

I'm pretty impressed. It looks cool, but actually seeing it with your own data is neat - it's like taking a trip back in time. So many things I've forgotten about!

Or: "How to prompt Facebook to fix this immediately"

Note: If you remove the action from one of your apps, the timeline goes away, as well.

Off topic but unsure where to post:<p>How do I reach facebook with a security problem that I don't want to post publicly? Is there an email address or can someone contact me? (email in profile)

Seems very similar to <a href="http://erly.com" rel="nofollow">http://erly.com</a>, a startup that just launched a couple weeks ago. The difference is that Facebook builds an automatic timeline from your data and erly you have to import everything manually from Facebook.

And adding my phone number / credit card to 'verify' my account will aide in creating an app how?

I'm not much of a fan of Techcrunch and their articles (same with Mashable at times; I have my reasons), but this was great. I'll give Techcrunch another shot at my news reading attention just because of this tut. :)

I have all platform applications turned off to protect my privacy so I'll have to wait for it becoming public.

I "Liked" and commented on status updates that showed up on my wall before that was an actual feature, but the friends whose updates I acted on didn't get a notification. Will this be the case for when the timeline goes live?<p>I also noticed that you can arbitrarily add events to any point in your timeline. So I guess FB is aiming to be a retrospective diary, too.

Just a warning: the mobile app stopped being able to receive notifications, which seems strange that it would be affected
