Facebook does not offer services that allow users to document and make timelines of history. Facebook allows users to timeline THEIR OWN HISTORY. This is the most retarded stupid inaccurate money-grubbing lawsuit I have ever seen. Sure facebook is not without their faults, but on this one, I wonder who the idiot is that has failed to point the extremely obvious distinct difference between the websites. Besides, facebook isn’t changing their name to timelines. No one will be “confused” between timelines.com and facebook. if you get those two confused, you’re mental. really. I wish I could honestly walk into that courtroom and just shut them all down. Morons, all of them.

I believe one of the landmark cases in this area was Time Magazine v Time Plumbing. The plumbers were allowed to keep non-interfering use of the name. “Time” seems pretty generic to me…
