Been evolving with Facebook almost since this social media giant began. They're doing this new thing called “Facebook Memories” where you can look back on your significant FB adventures. I like it because it gives me a chance to get rid of broken links in my history. But also because it reminds me of cool stuff that happened like … ages ago. Here's a really neat reminder! - Two years ago on February 19, 2014, I shared the link below from TechCrunch on my timeline. It was about a guy named Brian Acton. Do you know who he is?

@trivia79 - Each of your names, first, middle and last, have great significance in the history of mankind. To me that's cool! Not like my name. Nobody knows where it came from or anything about it. Just that it was my aunt's suggestion to my mother who wanted an unusual name. Anyway I'm cool with it!

I don't like it because it keeps trying to show old memories of me and my ex which is something I'd rather avoid seeing.

Yeah! Some of the photos I saved were pretty cool. But most of my stuff was interesting links I had forgotten about.
