Facebook Activity Log: How to search

Facebook's Activity Log is the place to find all your posts and posts that friends have tagged you in. This is the place to go to when you want to review all the posts you have on your Timeline. From here you can either allow on Timeline, hide from Timeline or limit your posts to be viewable by only certain people. This is the most important place for you to set all your posts privacy settings. When you go to your Activity Log you can filter all your posts to make them easily searchable. This way if you want to find all the photos you've uploaded to Facebook -- use the photos filter to find only photos. You can do this for almost anything, you can search for all the posts made by games or apps on your Timeline. Easy to sort through and you can then either disable or allow on Timeline.
