Facebook has over 1.2 billion users, and a new web project from programmer Natalie Rojas has brought them all together as a mosaic of user pics on The Faces of Facebook.
Visually impressive, the site loads up as a supposed view of Facebook's 1.2 billion users. You can select any area of the picture to zoom in for a closer look at clusters of individual profile images, all chronologically ordered, according to Rojas. Hovering over a user's picture will give you their name and "FACE #," representing the order all profiles were created. Clicking a user's picture will even launch their full profile page on Facebook.
Of course, if a profile is marked as private, no information that isn't publicly available is shown here or when following the link to the full profile. "Relax. We're not breaking any Facebook privacy rule because we don't store anyone's private information, pictures or names," Rojas writes.
"We've just found a harmless way to show 1,260,866,093 Facebook profile pictures and organize them in chronological order"
The Faces of Facebook experience is enhanced if you sign in to your Facebook account while visiting. The project will give you the FACE #s for you and your friends, and also point out the areas where you each lie on the overview.
So visit the page and see which of your friends has the longest Facebook tenure. Just understand that none of you have been around longer than Mark Zuckerberg - he is, naturally, FACE #1.

These may be desirable policies that could get the British economy growing again, breaking us out of the doom-loop of stagnation, rising taxes and higher inflation – but they would be very difficult to implement.
Making threats against a federal law enforcement officer and family is itself a crime, although it is unclear whether Trump’s behavior reaches that threshold.
Perhaps the one thing that can be said for certain about the abortive Wagner “coup” is that Russia cannot protect its borders, let alone its major cities. There is also one obvious conclusion for the West to draw: we must give Ukraine the tools and latitude to exploit this weakness and bring Vladimir Putin’s regime tumbling down.
