Facebook has launched a small new feature that allows you to look at and explore our past, to remind us what we were doing today and what happened a year ago or even two, three or more years ago . It practically becomes a way to review old status updates and photographs taken on a particular day, messages, comments, changes in reports and any other relevant news published.
The functionality, new and currently being released (not everyone yet sees it) is completely automatic and can be seen on the home page of the Facebook site or from the Facebook application for smartphones.
To find past photos and updates, go to the PC at //www.facebook.com/onthisday to see what " happened today " which is the title of the page.
" Accadde Oggi " can also be accessed from the Facebook home page, by clicking the link in the left column, under the applications section.
The news and personal events of the past are also accessible from the smartphone, in the general section of the options that opens by touching the button with three lines.
Happened Today it is clearly visible at the top and, the first time, a warning should appear to discover the new functionality.
On the page of "Accadde Oggi" you can click the preferences button at the top right to exclude seeing photos with people we do not want to remember (for example deceased or ex relatives) and to exclude some dates that would bring back bad memories.
On both PC and mobile phone you can receive notifications in order to remember to see what happened in past years on this particular day (for example April 22).
The various stories, photos and updates of the section of the past on Facebook can also be shared by pressing the usual button.
Happened today is another way that Facebook gives to older users who have shared many things, to see themselves younger and to re-read what they had written.
I remember in fact that it is always possible to create and see the video of our story on Facebook by putting the best photos together.
Those interested in the past, however, can always search for old Facebook posts published
