Facebook Timeline<\/a> changes how you present your life-story on the Web; some treat it like an online diary while others can create a simple yet beautiful collage of real-life stories. But Timeline still uses the classic web view \u2014 you still have to do plenty of scrolling to see the rest of the story.<\/p>\n

What if you can change the experience, make your Timeline move on its own or better yet, turn it into a movie? Add a little background music for that extra feel and experience, and let the story of your life roll out frame by frame. You can do this with the help of the web application Timeline Movie Maker<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
