Facebook Year in Review Lets Users Share Their Highlights of 2014

Users can customise their Year in Review timelines as well, with Facebook allowing users to add up to four photos for each month in the year gone by along with a description. It also lets users add new nameable sections, which can have their own photos and description.

Once done customising highlights, the Year in Review timeline can be shared by posting on the user's own Timeline or wall. Users will also be able to customise their Year in Review timelines on mobile via Facebook's dedicated apps.

Earlier this year, on its 10th anniversary, Facebook had created a different sort of Year in Review for users - a Look Back video. Very much like a Year in Review compilation, except in video form, a Look Back video highlighted the biggest events from the user's entire time on the social network - not just the year gone by.

The social networking giant had then called it a "small gesture to thank the over one billion people who are on Facebook by providing a unique way to look back at some of their biggest moments."

Facebook had in November also launched the Say Thanks tool, which let users create personalised video cards for their friends.
