. INTERNET: SEARCH: TOOLS: Google and Library of Congress Archive Tweets Google and Library of Congress Archive TweetsBy Hibah Yousuf, April 14, 2010: 3:05 PM ET CNN Money <http://money.cnn.com/2010/04/14/technology/Google_Twitter_archive/>
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- What was the Twitterverse's reaction to the Lehman Brothers collapse? President Obama's election? Now you won't have to wonder.
Every single public tweet, dating back to the very first missive posted on March 21, 2006, will now be housed in the government's Library of Congress. Plus, Google is making the Twitter archive searchable.
The Library of Congress -- which boasts millions of books, recordings, photographs, maps and manuscripts in its collections -- announced on Wednesday (via Twitter) that is has acquired all public tweets in the Twitter archive.
"Expect to see an emphasis on the scholarly and research implications of the acquisition. I'm no Ph.D., but it boggles my mind to think what we might be able to learn about ourselves and the world around us from this wealth of data," wrote a Library of Congress representative in a Facebook note. (The federal institution's Web site was experiencing disruptions).
It seems search giant Google (GOOG, Fortune 500) had the same idea, and it announced plans on Wednesday to give users access to Twitter's entire archive, allowing people to "zoom to any point in time and 'replay' what people were saying publicly about a topic on Twitter."
