Unit of time invented by Facebook - 1 flick corresponds to 1/705600000 of a second.
It was created as a way to express in Integer numbers (multiples of flicks) the duration of a frame in videos/films played back at common frame rates: 24, 25, 30, 48, 50, 60, 90, 100, 120 Hz and 1/1000 divisions of each. It can also be used in audio for the most common frequencies: 8, 16, 22, 24, 32, 44, 48, 88, 96 and 192 kHz.
Ex:
