Remember your first Facebook status update? When you got the first like or comment for your status from your loved ones? If you search them on your Facebook feed, it will be deep down. So here is a simple way for it.
With the help of Archivedbook, we are going to find the old status updates. This site allows us to view all the old wall messages from your Facebook friends and all your old status updates. Archivedbook is a great way to review your Facebook profile’s history.
Search Your Old Facebook Status Updates & Wall Posts
- Go to Archivedbook. Now click on the Connect button and start remembering your embarassing Facebook past. π
Now allow Archivedbook to access your profile, select the option ‘Allow‘.
Now it will retrieve the archived wall of your Facebook profile. Depending upon the number of status updates and wall posts you have it will take some time, usually it will be completed within seconds.
In the above picture, you can see my Facebook status updated on the year 2009, look how childish they are. π To the left side of the status updates, you will have the permalink, so that you can view it directly on Facebook.
You can also see the number of likes, comments and respective permalinks for the status updates.
Search Your Friends’ Old Facebook Status Updates & Wall Posts
Interestingly this site also allows you to search your friend’s Facebook status updates and wall posts.
You just need to select the specific friend from the drop down list and within few seconds it will display all the status updates and wall posts (along with number of likes and comments) with the permalinks.

I'm one of those stupid sentimental people who won't delete any of these old statuses or comments due to embarrassment cause they all hold so many beautiful memories. Oh my gosh, thanks for posting this! Endless entertainment :') Sometimes I wish I could go back in time…
Archviedbook doesn't go all the way back to 2007. I joined facebook on June 22, 2007 and want to get that far back. Is there anymore options.
Yes, Bryan, they do have limitations unfortunately. But they try their best to go backward.
Thanks S.Pradeek!
Actually you might want to check the new version of Archivedbook, just released yesterday. There are some cool new features. Any feedbacks or comments are warmly welcome π
I am trying to find an old post on a Business page…how do I find that….?
That is difficult Robert. This will work well only on profiles.
it doesn't go back to the very beginning. if you have a long post it doesn't show the entire post. and it only showed comments going back a month or so on my wall. but i did see some of my statuses from a couple of years ago. was expecting more but i guess this was all technology could do
Oops, maybe there could be a time limit or some malfunction with the script Kristi, for me it worked well, I got my first Facebook status. π
Archive is one of the superior way to bring sweet memories in to our life π And, it would be looking superb π Great data π

This is a great app but you can do the same thing by going to 'Account settings' and then 'Download your information'. It sends you an archive of everything you've ever uploaded to facebook: statuses, comments, photos, the lot!
This is an awesome find! We run a tremendous amount of contests and giveaways on our Facebook Page and looking back to find winners, etc. can be a process that no one enjoys. Hello Archivebook.

This definitely makes searching for older posts a lot easier. Sometimes when I want to read through old posts, it takes so much time because I have to scroll endlessly. I'm definitely going to try this out.
