I see profiles have their own time lines. Is there not a way to combine all the status updates of people you follow into one main timeline a la Facebook?
Its this that really opens the social side of online communities.

This is how it works now. Let Profile1 follow Profile2. Let Profile2 create an activity. Profile2's activity will now show on Profile1's timeline.
The actually way this works in Jamroom is based on the Twitter model, not FB.

Hi thankyou for the response. Is there a way to make it like Facebook? I dont want other peoples activities cluttering up someones profile timeline, Id like to find a way to place them all in 1 main timeline with its own page that users are directed to when they log in.

Thats what happens now. When the user is looking at their own timeline they see all the stuff of the people they follow. When someone else looks at their timeline they see just the stuff that that user posted.

See here:

When you look at my timeline, you see only stuff I have posted, but when i look at it I see that and also people I follow, like @paul's posts and @n8flash's posts.

Like twitter.

You could build that out to be the top page of the site and pull from the users profile, but its not designed like that.

Facebook is a social network connected by relationships, Jamroom is more of a social network connected by topic where relationships can form.

so the focus is a bit different.
