Facebook announced a new profile page design dubbed the "Timeline" in September and it is now beginning to roll it out to users — starting with those in New Zealand.

Of course, it's been possible to try out the Timeline design for a while — by signing up for a developer beta. A recent blog post by the folks at Facebook revealed that over a million people have already taken advantage of that and took the new design for a test drive.

You can still use that trick to access Timelines — and you might even need to since it could be a while before the gradual rollout of the new design comes to your Facebook account.

If you need a refresher on how to sign up for a developer beta and activate Timeline, we've got some detailed instructions right here.
