VaKo Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Can't be that expensive to store, especially if your using WORM media. And tbh its a good idea in my mind. So much of humanity's digital revolution has already been lost (just ask Moonlit about the IPTV archive project), so storing something as big as twitter should be stored for future generations to look at.

Seshan Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) Yeah I agree it's a good idea, we have moved to digital media, if we don't do something in 50 years there will be nothing left to show of us.
