Finally, Facebook Lets You Search For Older Posts

Facebook is making a change that I don't hate. Weird.

I think it's incredibly frustrating when you can't find a particular post you're looking for. Like that sweet recipe for jello shots you know you saw. Or that one time you said that really funny thing and now you want to relive it. As one does.

Except you can't find it! Dammit Facebook, why can't we just search for older posts?! Well, now we can.

Facebook announced Monday that they are updating Facebook Search to make it easier to find the posts that have been shared with you.

Tom Stocky, Vice President of Facebook Search, said in a blogpost :

You’ve given us a lot of feedback on the Graph Search beta. You’ve told us the most important thing is being able to find posts you’ve seen before, and now you can. With a quick search, you can get back to a fun video from your graduation, a news article you’ve been meaning to read, or photos from your friend’s wedding last summer.

 

All you have to do is type in any part of the post in the search bar, and Facebook will search all the posts you've ever seen to help you find it.

Whoa.
