Facebook has over 1.2 billion users, and a new web project from programmer Natalie Rojas has brought them all together as a mosaic of users pictures.
You can select any area of the picture to zoom in for a closer look at clusters of individual profile images, all chronologically ordered, according to Rojas. Hovering over a user's picture will give you their name and 'face # 'x'' representing the order all profiles were created. Clicking a user's picture will even launch their full profile page on Facebook.

Wow. And it makes sense that the first people on the site were college students, because Facebook was meant only for them when it was first made.

This is just creepy. Why would I want someone I do not know even being near my Facebook picture?

They're not exactly close, what are the chances of someone clicking on you hidden amongst 1.2 billion people?

I have a feeling somebody is going to spend hours finding themselves.
