  • Twitter Archive Now Supports 12 New Languages

    Twitter has just announced that they’ve made Twitter archive available for a bunch of new languages: Danish, Filipino, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Urdu. Now, Twitter users using the service in those languages can access and download a complete archive of every tweet they ever sent.

    As you may remember, Twitter opened up their archive service to English-speaking users back in December of 2012, after promising the service for a few months. With the Twitter archive, users get to look at every single tweet they ever made – including retweets. It’s a nice trip down memory lane, but beware: it’s pretty painful to see how much of a Twitter-noob you were when you first began.

    If you want to obtain your Twitter archive, simply go to your settings (desktop). Scroll all the way to the bottom and you’ll see a link the says request your archive.” Once you click it, Twitter will let you know that it may take a few minutes to prepare. When it’s ready, Twitter will email you a link.

    Twitter has been busy adding language support for Twitter archive. Earlier this month, they added support for another 12 languages: Dutch, Farsi, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, & Spanish. That brings the total up to 25 languages supported by Twitter’s archive feature.

  • Twitter Archives Now Available in 12 New Languages

    Twitter has just announced that they’ve expanded the reach of their archive service to 12 new languages: Dutch, Farsi, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, & Spanish. Now, users using Twitter in those languages can download a full archive of all of their tweets.

    After making promises for a few month, Twitter finally began to allow English-speaking users to download browsable tweet archives back in December. These “Twitter Archives” contain all types of outgoing communications including tweets and retweets – from the very beginning. “Tweet Zero,” if you will.

    “We know lots of you would like to explore your Twitter past,” said Twitter last year.

    In order to obtain your Twitter Archive, just go to your setting, scroll to the bottom, and click the “request your archive” button. Twitter will warn you that it may take a little while to prepare, but when it’s done they will email you a link.

  • Twitter Begins to Let Users Download Tweet Archives

    After making promises for a good while, Twitter is finally starting the process of giving every user the ability to download an archive of their tweets – all of them. That means all of your outgoing communications, retweets and all, will be available for you to possess (and browse!).

    “It’s no secret: You make Twitter what it is. And if you tweet, you may have found yourself wanting to go back in time and explore your past Tweets. Maybe you wanted to recall your reaction to the 2008 election, reminisce on what you said to your partner on your 10th anniversary, or just see your first few Tweets. We know lots of you would like to explore your Twitter past,” said Twitter.

    So soon you can. All you have to do is go to your settings, scroll to the bottom of the page, and click the “request your archive” button. When the file is ready to be downloaded, Twitter will email you a link.

    Once you access your personal archive, you can search all of your previous tweets by date. There’s also a search feature that allows you to find specific tweets based on keywords, hashtags, and @usernames. So, if you want to see every tweet you’ve ever sent your best friend, now you can. Or if you’re looking to find everything you’ve ever said about “beer,” you can. Although you may not want to see the Twitter proof of your slight drinking issue.

    If you don’t see the option within your settings, don’t worry. Twitter says they are rolling out this feature slowly, and to English-speaking users first. They say it will take weeks (maybe months) before everyone has the ability to download their tweets.

    “We’re really excited to bring this feature to everyone, and we appreciate your patience as we work to do so,” they say.
