I found it funny, because of the mismatch between the "this is supposed to feel poignant" style of background music and the completely-lacking-in-poignancy material I tend to post on Facebook.

I was laughing almost all throughout.

I definitely found it the reverse. I've been using FB for 8 years and I found it very poignant too but most of the images seemed to be from the last year or two.

I don't know if this correlates with the amount I posted those years or is just the effect of randomly picking a fairly small pool of images and events. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clustering_illusion

My video ended with the "Sky.NET" meme image that we were joking about when Microsoft bought Skype. Talk about mood-destroying.

Maybe you (and your friends) used Facebook a lot more 6 years ago. I'm sure that's a big part of the algorithm: picking out the posts that got the most interaction.
