Maybe You Can Collect Those Old Tweets After All

Today the Library of Congress announced “Every public tweet, ever, since Twitter’s inception in March 2006, will be archived digitally at the Library of Congress.

I’ve blogged before about my frustrations with Twitter search and the fact Twitter’s archives only go back about 1.5 weeks.

Does this mean that companies will be able to get their past tweets from the Library of Congress? I don’t care about my own tweets or even the ones from my company’s account, but to be able to get hashtagged tweets from past events or promotions? Heck yes I want them!
