On 30 March all Facebook pages will be automatically converted to the new Timeline design. As a result, default landing pages, like the one we’re using to let new fans download the Rewound EP for free, will be gone. We still have to figure out how to rearrange the page, as the change will be a lot more radical than last year’s Facebook page upgrade, but the free download will still be available here on the website.
Of course, not everyone likes Timeline, but there is no way to disable or remove Timeline once you’ve upgraded. (And you’ll be forced to do so soon.) There is a workaround though, in case you want to view Timeline pages with the old design. The FB Purity plugin offers to disguise your browser as IE7, so that Facebook pages will fall back to the old design. But it’s not likely that this hack will continue to work for very long, so better get used to Timeline soon!
