Facebook announced the launch of a new video card feature called “Say Thanks,” which lets you do exactly that. It’s a way of creating personalized video cards for your friends.
You can do this by going to facebook.com/thanks, and choosing a friend. Facebook will generate a preview of the video, and you can select different themes, and edit photos, and posts that “represent your friendship”.
Facebook says, “Millions of people use Facebook every day to connect with the people and things that matter to them most. Your friends are at the core of your Facebook experience, and we are always looking for new ways to help you celebrate those friendships.”
“When you’re satisfied with the video, click ‘Share’ — you will have the option of writing a personalized message before posting,” it explains. “The video will post on your Timeline and your friend will be tagged, so it will show up on their Timeline as well.”

The feature is rolling out on both desktop and mobile in English, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish.
Now, if they’d just deliver on the more important features they’ve announced in the past.
