Facebook is a social network where you can store and share updates, photos and other content. As in any other social network, many Facebook users enjoy looking at and displaying statistics and facts about their accounts on the site, such as the length of time their profiles have been active. Although a Facebook profile currently doesn't display the date the user joined Facebook, other ways exist to discover when a person first registered an account.

Scroll to the bottom of the user's Wall. If prompted, click the "View Older Posts" tab at the bottom of the page to view additional activity on the user's Wall. Facebook lists a user's recent activity in reverse chronological order so that the first action the user took on the site is last.
