See your and your friends' top 2013 Facebook posts with Year in Review

As the year end approaches, Facebook has made its Year in Review tool available for everyone to go through some of their most memorable stories of the year. The tool auto-builds a personalised timeline, containing the most popular stories from the year that you can relive and share.

This is the second tiime that Facebook has made the Year in Review tool available for use to all users. You can not just go through your own top stories but even your friends’ highlights for the years. Of course, standard privacy settings apply to this tool. So if you’ve shared a particular story with only a handful of people and it is mentioned on the page, it will be visible only to those people.

Hit the button and check out a whole new timeline dedicated to the best posts on your profile that year. These will include status updates, images and check-ins, amongst other stories.
