Library of Congress Acquires Entire Twitter Archive

The Library of Congress Blog reports How Tweet It Is!: Library Acquires Entire Twitter Archive "That’s right. Every public tweet, ever, since Twitter’s inception in March 2006, will be archived digitally at the Library of Congress. That’s a LOT of tweets, by the way: Twitter processes more than 50 million tweets every day, with the total numbering in the billions." And yes, the first thing I did was check the date of the post, it wasn't April first.
