Facebook turns 12 today, and the social network is commemorating the event with a custom video for millions of users chronicling our rich history of spending a lot of time on Facebook.

If you don’t want to share your video, you can share stickers.
Much like the company’s end-of-year personalized videos that show a user’s greatest moments from the past year, Friend’s Day videos show a user their algorithm-picked best moments with friends that you’ve shared on Facebook. The company now counts more than a billion daily active users of its flagship app, and is closing in on a billion daily actives on mobile as well.
Facebook marked its 12th birthday with 1.5 billion active users on the social-networking platform.
“When people connect, powerful things happen and lives are changed”.
The first Friends Day video you see will be pre-populated with photos Facebook thinks you’ll like, but it is also customisable and any of the photos can be edited before you share it.
Today, you can open your account to discover a short video created by a special algorithm Facebook has created to generate content from.
In an official blog post, Facebook CEO, Zuckerberg said, “That’s what the best movements do”.
