We're always getting asked what people who work at Facebook are up to and how they can find out about it. Facebook is focused on helping people share and connect, and in our work, we encounter some pretty big questions and unsolved problems. Often our work follows us home. With so many interesting challenges and perspectives, we want to surface all the thoughts, energy and passion of the people at Facebook. So, today we're launching people.facebook.com—a collection of the voices of Facebook employees.

people.facebook.com is an aggregation of employees' personal blog posts. It'll link to content by Facebook employees from all across the Web including Facebook Notes and other blogs. There are three channels—engineering, platform and life, with more to come. You'll discover a bit of everything from an engineer's diatribe on what makes good code to an open letter to the White House on best practices for the President's website and even an explanation as to how the OpenID experience can work within pop-up windows. The aggregator will pick up any new blog posts by our employees, but you can also subscribe to an RSS feed for each channel.

The blogs at people.facebook.com are the personal and unfiltered opinions of Facebook employees and not necessarily those of Facebook's. We'll continue to have our official channels of communication where you should look for news and updates from the company—this blog and those that are focused on engineering and Platform, too.
