Install
Chrome-Stats extension
to view Chrome-Stats data as you browse the Chrome Web Store.
You can even choose what to do with your photos, whether you'd like them left as they are, hidden from your timeline, moved to the archive, or moved to the trash.
Forgetbook doesn't save any of your information. It works entirely inside of your chrome browser, clicking the buttons on your activity log the same way that you do. We don't even have an external server! If you'd like to see the code for youself, check it out on github: https://github.com/forgetbookapp/forgetbook
We hope forgetbook saves you a lot of time. If you like it you can support the project at paypal.me/forgetbook

A game changer for sure; this may be one of the more helpful extensions to keep around.
Please note, it's important to follow the directions, as there's a bit of room for user error. When the extension is first installed, be sure to restart Google Chrome. As it may not work otherwise.
A really cool feature I appreciate is being able to filter by year. If you filter your posts by year via your Activity Log on Facebook, you'll find Forgetbook only deletes those posts. Note, if your speed is too high, it may require a restart depending on the types of posts it's deleting. At least for me.
For example, on multiple posts from 2009, Facebook provided a pop-up asking me if I wanted to "Trash" the items Forgetbook was trying to get rid of. If you don't consistently hit delete when the pop-up shows, Forgetbook may get backed up in a sense, and need a restart.
It's quick, efficient, and requires little work from the user. If you lack the time and patience to manually go through each painstaking year, each post, each link and react....I HIGHLY recommend this Chrome Extension. In a society lacking in privacy, Forgetbook may just be the saving grace we didn't expect.
