In its 8-year presence, Facebook has seen all heights; the height of Social Networking, the height of innovation and the height of imagination. And this post focuses on the imagination aspect of Facebook. Let us make it simple; how the Facebook status updates would have been if it was launched, say exactly 100 years before its actual launch on February 4, 1904 instead of February 4, 2004. What if Facebook was there when the Titanic sank, what if it was there when Hitler became the Chancellor of Germany, what if it was there when India achieved independence, what if it was there when man first reached the moon and what if it was there when Facebook itself was being created? This list goes on.

People, then would have posted their status updates on Facebook as we do today and today’s generation would have searched for those archived posts and enjoyed reading them and cherishing the history. This article fantasizes those 100 years in a fictional, humorous and creative manner. To make this article interesting enough to catch the imagination of every Facebook admirer, I have re-designed the homepage of my Facebook Profile with a historical look.
