What your thoughts on it?

Interesting! I'd never seen that before. My question is, if it's all on your FB page anyway, why bother with a hard copy? However, I suppose it could be useful for people in business who want to showcase their work, or give one as a gift to someone who does not have FB. Can you imagine how many volumes someone could end up with?

There is a book in the UK called a Life Book. I think that is a fantastic idea - when I worked in child welfare, I would help the youth put a life book together as they transitioned out of care. Not all of them wanted to do that - it depended on whether their experience was positive or not.

Personally, if there comes a time when I lose my mobility, I would want to start a home based business where I can interview people who want a hard copy of their life book to pass down to their children. I would fill it with humor and seriousness from early childhood all the way through their final years, and focus on the most significant times. I think it would make a great gift!

Actually, I went back and clicked on all the links and created a preview of mine. It's actually kinda cool! I think I am going to start watching what I post, and only post things that I would like in a life book. Then I might actually want to get one. I do think they are amazing gifts for the people in my life - I would love to pay for one for my mom, for my in-laws, etc. (of theirs, not of mine).

If I enjoyed new recipes, I could make a facebook page and post only great recipes. Or if I wanted a terrific photo album of places and people, I could just post those and create an album. Or wise sayings, etc. I think it's a great idea for whatever theme.... pretty fun, actually!

I think I'm going to create a "Willie" page and create an album for my dog, Willie.

I been thinking on it and went an did mine, I like how it have all the comments and stuff with your photos, or your status responses etc...I got some really good photos and saved recipes on my Facebook...I don't post personal stuff that I wouldn't want "out there", my stuff is general life events, church, music, hobbies, travels, tons of photos etc.

Although stuff be on your facebook wall, the books are done by the year an it be easy to get to stuff, no fun scrolling back to find stuff and then the page reloads and get sent back to your current postings had that to happen lots, no fun!

Interesting idea to make fb into an actual real life book!!

No, I havent bought one as i dont do fb.
But yea you could make one yourself.

What I do is just write in journals but its personal I dont show anyone.
Then i have old school photo albums and write captions using a pen. Lol.
Recipes i just put in a folder.

We did have yearbooks at school (this was before fb got popular) but I never kept mine. I think i kept the school photo and everyone signed my autograph book but that was it. I dont really look back on school years with much fondness!!

I journal too, I do it on OneNote, I love it! You write there or saved stuff from the internet to OneNote(microsoft office) and you can add OneNote to mac or android, OneNote updates all your enteries on whatever device you have it on.

 

[Goodbook]

not heard of one-note, I blog other things I'm willing to share to the public though.
Personal journal is just a book I write in. God knows about it but I don't share it with anyone. When its finished I read over it then bin it.

I keep mine for myself, I'm not networking with others.

 

[Goodbook]

[Kit Sigmon]

OneNote app is free, it be on the OneNote website.

I'm happy not having mine made into a book. I look back to 2007 when I joined and I was so different then. Its embarrassing to see that I called myself a christian at the time. Ugh. Thankfully you can change your settings so no one can see that far back now.

 

[Kit Sigmon]

NothingIsImpossible: I believe all of us are probably different than we were back in 2007, I like seeing those changes reflected on my Facebook wall over the years, and I'm thankful that the Lord convicted me of being so vain.My Facebook now glorifies him more than glorying in myself, what I bought etc....a whole lot less of "I" and more of the Lord, his Word and what he's doing in the lives of others.

 

[Goodbook]

I think if i go over all the posts I made on cf since I came to know the Lord it would be interesting. Well, for me, prolly not anyone else...

Maybe someone should invent a digital version of the lambs book of life.
It wont be facebook, it would be faithbook.

If you no longer want to follow Jesus, I suppose you can but hes always going to draw you back.

 

[Kit Sigmon]

MySocialbook was invented by Nicolas Cazagou a multimedia artist, not Facebook.
I went and read over about the founder an I happened to notice that not only can his software make a book out of your Facebook, it can also do Instagram too.

 

[Kit Sigmon]

I'm happy that you can like edit the book, I going to talk it over with my husband and see if he'd make a gift of it to me.

 

[Goodbook]

Well. God is always editing the lambs books of life. He doesnt want bad stuff there or sins remembered - just the people who love Him.

I'm getting mysocialbook for an anniversary gift!
I have been going over the like all the years I've been on Facebook and I came across posts from a friend/relative who passed away, it would be a good idea that I go ahead and get the book made because her things be there... her family will be delete her online accounts at any time, they packing up her home and clearing out her storage building etc now.

 

[Goodbook]

Good idea, i considered writing a book or having one made about my friend that passed away, i just have her stuff on bits of paper as she wrote me letters, and emails, i was never on fb with her though.

I did have a fb account but i deleted it.
