Facebook launched “Timeline Movie Maker” app today, as the name suggests this app allows users to create a movie out of their Facebook Timeline content. As Facebook pushes Timeline feature to all the users it makes sense to release this app, as it will promote the Timeline feature, a clever advertising indeed. Once created you can share it on Facebook for your friends to watch.
The app itself is simple to use, when you visit the site you are greeted with a graphic that reads Timeline Movie Maker and make your movie button. You need to give permission to the app to access your basic info, email address, your profile info including, activities, birthday, likes, location, religious views, photos, posts, videos, and pretty much everything in your timeline. If you are comfortable with doing that you are good to go. But if you are unlucky like me that you didn’t upload at least 75 photos you need to do that in order to make your first movie of your social life. Once it is finished you can remove any image, change music and edit the check-in.
It is a joint project between Facebook and Definition6, the app is aimed to turn all your memorable moments from your timeline into a short movie that you can share with your friends. But right now there is no way you can share it on YouTube, this functionality might be added at a later stage.
