Download Your Facebook.

Here is a nifty update from Facebook that lets users download their own Facebook information with just a few clicks. This is a great way to back up our months/years of information that we have placed on Facebook.

Here are some of the things that you will end up getting after the download:
- Photos and Videos that you have shared on your Facebook
- Your chat conversations and messages
- All the wall post that you have posted
- Friendlist and their contacts (if available and allowed)
- No, you won't be getting any of your friend's photos or information and any comments made on other's post.

From time to time, I see my friends having to recreate a new Facebook account and starting from scratch after losing their account to hackers or what not. With a backup ready in your computer/archive, it would surely make it easier to recreate a new account. But do keep in mind where you store the downloaded information as it could easily be accessed once downloaded to your PC or to an archive.

The steps are as easy as 1-2-3.

1. Log in to your Facebook and head to Account Settings.
(click on the arrow beside 'Home' for those that have never editted your Account Settings before this)

2. Once inside your Account Settings, scroll down the page and look for and click on 'Download a copy of your Facebook data'

3. You will then be brought to the final page where you can click on Start My Archive and Facebook starts to pack your information for download.

Well done, you now have a copy of your Facebook!
