Facebook: Automatic New Year’s Greetings, How To

Holiday season, greeting season: Facebook is well aware of this, having understandably facilitated millions of greetings, from one wall to another, in the days leading up to Christmas.
To continue this trend, the Facebook team has decided to introduce a new feature: automatic New Year’s greetings to your friends.
The service – implemented as an official application – allows you to upload your greetings (perhaps accompanied by photos, videos, or other elements) to then forward them to recipients a few seconds after midnight, taking into account time zones.
For each New Year’s greeting message, you can select up to ten contacts; however, this means the operation can be repeated multiple times, always selecting new contacts, in order to progressively include all recipients to whom you wish to send your message immediately after New Year’s midnight.
To do all this, you need to access the Facebook page Stories Midnight, grant the application permission to post messages, and then indicate the text, any photo, and the names of the contacts you wish to reach.

Facebook will likely try to prevent its users – statistically engaged in celebrations and therefore away from their PCs – from using other services to send greetings (like SMS or increasingly popular messaging services such as WhatsApp) or from avoiding sending greetings altogether, having other things to do.
Once again, behind the offer of a new service, we can see the Facebook team’s desire to integrate most of its subscribers’ habits and behaviors into its network, allowing them to find everything their online social life needs within Facebook itself.
