Facebook announced the launch of searching your posts and status updates within graph search.
Facebook said, “Today, Graph Search will include posts and status updates.” With this, you “will be able to search for status updates, photo captions, check-ins and comments to find things shared with you.”

Other search commands that let you search Facebook posts and status updates include:

- Posts written at The White House
- Posts I commented on
- My posts from last year
For more on this feature, see the help center at Facebook.
