Facebook Timeline: Important Privacy Settings to Adjust Now
If you care to keep your past in the past, Facebook's new version of the profile, called Timeline, makes that a little more difficult.
With Timeline, every status update, wall post and photo ever posted since the day you joined Facebook becomes easily searchable to you and your friends. For many--early adopters especially--dredging up the past for all to see can be a privacy nightmare.

You can publish it yourself anytime within the five-day waiting period. Here are what your options are for adjusting your settings, based on the level of privacy you want to achieve.
