Title: Like tweeting? Careful, Congress is going to ARCHIVE them all! Post by: BTM on April 19, 2010, 11:25:44 AM So, according to this article I read, the Library of Congress is planning on archiving every tweet from 2006 on.
Why? God only knows. Sounds a bit like a waste to me, but then, I've not gotten into Twitter (hell, barely into Facebook.) http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/technology/globe-on-technology/us-library-of-congress-will-archive-every-public-tweet-from-2006-on/article1534376/ (http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/technology/globe-on-technology/us-library-of-congress-will-archive-every-public-tweet-from-2006-on/article1534376/) Title: Re: Like tweeting?

Sounds a bit like a waste to me, but then, I've not gotten into Twitter (hell, barely into Facebook.) You're not alone. I tend to forget I even have Facebook. I mean, if something actually worth telling friends and family comes up I'll call them or email them. Putting it up on a public space seems kinda impersonal to me. Title: Re: Like tweeting?
