The Museum of Me is a new Facebook app from Intel that creates an online museum based on the contents of your Facebook account. The app pulls pictures, friends and videos from your account to create a one-of-a-kind museum that is unlike anything you have ever seen before.

Intel truly has gone all-out here, creating an app that manages to make all of your ridiculous status updates and photos seem beautiful and artistic. I created my own museum and was stunned by how moved I was over something as trivial as my most used words in status updates or my friend's pictures. Check out the demo video of The Museum of Me app here. I guarantee the music will get to you.
