Report: Some Brands Will Get Facebook’s Timeline This Month

Some U.S. companies with Facebook pages will be able to use Facebook’s new Timeline interface at the end of this month, according to a new report.

Ad Age is reporting that Facebook will launch Timeline for brands/business pages during its fMC conference in New York City on February 29th. FMC is Facebook’s first event geared specifically to marketers using the company’s platform.

Facebook announced Timeline at its F8 conference last September, then formally launched it to non-business users in mid-December.

Ad Age reports that Timeline for brands will only be available to “a handful of partners” in the beginning, and will later be expanded in stages. The business version of Timeline will reportedly be similar, but not exactly the same as the version that regular users can access now.

Facebook didn’t give Ad Age a comment about its report.
