Facebook testing feature to resurface old posts on timeline

Facebook is reportedly testing a new feature that would let users bring back old posts on their Timeline.

The social networking giant said that it was testing the new feature to help users remember favorite moments by making it easier to revisit previous News Feed posts.

Facebook’s spokesperson said that when a user clicks on the notice, a list of some of the top posts from their News Feed a year ago will be displayed, AllThingsD reports.

According to the report, the yet-in-test mode feature is similar to startups like Timehop and the now-defunct Memolane apps that connected to users’ various social media accounts and resurfaced status updates, tweets and photos from years past.
