The creators of Twournal have just released Fonicle, a service that can go through your Facebook account and have it turned into a book for you to share with your friends and family. This book is going to be rendered as a PDF, and you are also provided with the option to have a bound book printed and delivered straight to your doorstep. It all depends on who you want to share your book with. It’s all-too obvious that your grandma or your grandpa that can’t tell a computer from a side of the shelf would feel more in their element if you handed a book to them.
Luckily, you have the option to curate what’s going to be included on your book, so that photos of that insanely wild frat party that no sensitive person should ever come across can be discreetly omitted.
As you can see, the similarities with Twournal are endless. Fonicle lets you do with your Facebook account what Twournal lets you do with your Twitter stream, and have it preserved for posterity in a way that’s almost identical. I just wonder how Facebook’s new timeline is going to affect Fonicle, though. But on first looks, it shouldn’t really hinder the service that much, should it? Anything that simplifies going back in time and retrieving past updates should work on its favor, right?
