"More than a dozen engineers worked throughout the year on this hack, with a goal of creating a collaborative space where friends can share photos from weddings, reunions, vacations, and other can’t-miss moments."

To me this seems to be yet another dilution of the word "hack" which (as I understand it) has the connotation of doing something quick and dirty.

At first I was "Ohhh, favorite hacks" but then i was "facebook.com, really... it's almost 2014" so I didn't click. Anyone have a mirror of this on a non-privacy-devastating website?

this is a list of facebook's engineers' favorite hacks to make facebook work better, not a list hosted on facebook.com of various hacks.

with that said, I'm assuming you don't care about what facebook does with its website and app.

Yeah, I thought it was something more general.

Snow overlay on an icon? Hacky and tacky all in one fell swoop. (slow golf clap)
