Happy 10th birthday Facebook! You have such a love and hate relationship with more than a billion people around the world. Awesome.
You guys wanna check out "A Look Back" [0]. It shows your highlights and moments in Facebook. It feels good reminiscing those moments. I wonder though, did they generate the look back videos for all of their users? I think that will require massive computation power.

- namenotrequired 13y agoMy (active) account only showed a few recent pictures.
- girvo 13y agoOh wow that was amazing! I wonder how they tackled that too
- batuhanicoz 13y agoMy "Lookback" was beautiful; brought back some memories. Made me realise how much my life changed in 6 years. As for your question, they are not generating it for every user; my test account doesn't have it. It's a 5 years old account.
- MojoJolo 13y agoInteresting. Maybe they just generate it for the active users. You mention it was a tst account, so I assume it's not that active and not a lot of content.
- batuhanicoz 13y agoYeah, not much content; I delete almost every post since they are just dummy posts made with the API. I just checked again and I know have that page on my test account but no video: Thank you, { firstname } 10 years ago people started using Facebook to share their biggest moments. Here are some of yours. And then just 6 photos, though that account has 7-8 photos anyway.
- TheCoat 13y agoI now also get that paged after having deleted one of the photos that appeared in the video. I wonder if they will regenerate it.
- MehiraDeOro 13y agoI'm hoping they will regenerate it :/ I deleted one photo from a bachelorette party because the cake very inappropriate and for whatever reason they chose that damn photo to be featured.
- srirup1988 13y agoITs the same story with me, first I hit the link I was able to see the video.....later on its just disappeared,after waiting long and refreshing no result.
- the_watcher 13y agoI enjoyed lookback a lot, although it didn't seem to do much besides randomly select posts (the statuses it selected were not my most liked, and half the photos were of other people).
