Facebook’s Top 10’s For 2014

As we get set to wind 2014 down, here's the end of year list that carries the most weight.

Since we all live and breathe by Facebook, a survey by the social media company tells us what were the most talked about items in Facebook posts this year. Was "Happy" by Pharrell number on in your book? How about Game of Thrones, Beyonce, Frozen or the Ebola outbreak?

Take a look at what Facebook says was on our minds the most in the past year. Later today, we'll test your 2014 trivia knowledge during Traffic Trivia starting at 3:30 pm on the Big Drive Home.
