Dec. 16, 2011 — -- In today's TechBytes: Facebook's new "Timeline" is now live.

It's a new look for personal pages, sort of like a digital scrapbook. And it makes it easier for you and everyone else to see everything you've ever done on Facebook.

Amazon's Kindles Are On File

Amazon says it's selling a million Kindles a week. That includes both the e-readers and the Kindle Fire tablet.

Amazon also says the Kindle Fire is its best selling product since it was introduced 11 weeks ago.

Weighing In On Wayin

There is a new website for those who like quick, interactive polls.

Wayin allows users to come up with their own multiple choice questions ... or vote on already existing ones.

While this isn't a place for serious debate, USA Today's Ed Baig found it to be a pleasant distraction.

"All of us love polls and instant feedback on certain topics. Again, it's not scientific testing. But for that quick opinion, it's kind of fun."

Wayin has a free mobile app for the iPhone and Android devices.
