The 6 fb friends in the timeline..?
ok this has prob been asked before, but whatever Big Grin

im just curious how the 6 friends in the timeline of a person are selected. I DONT mean the tiny pics that are above "617 friends" (or how many you have) but the bigger ones on the right hand side.
until now i have four guesses:
1. theyre coincidental
2. theyre the people that you interact the most f.e. on your wall or via likes or whatever (like the public things)
3. theyre the people you message the most with
4. theyre sorted by how many friends the viewer of a profile has in common with the person whose profile he/she is viewing.

as i said, im curious what is more likely and therefore i would like to hear your opinions or even your knowledge about this thingy thing Big Grin
thank you Smile

it's not based on 1 simple thing - it's a complex algorithm that they do not make public

it's based on interaction - and what defines an interaction?
