Imagine that you are following 2OOO profiles; by this number how many tweets would you receive in a day? The number will be phenomenal. In case, if you want to view your tweet which you tweeted 10 to 15 days ago, then it‘s a task to locate from such a lengthy list of tweets, isn’t it?

It is a fact that there are various third party tools of twitter available but they do not cater to the downloading functionality and hence Twitter is going to launch such a tool which will assist you to download all the tweets generated by you or your followers, etc.

Twitter wants to smoothen the process of relocating old tweets and empower the users with maximum features, so that they don’t have to take assistance of third party tools and save on time.

Objectivity of this tool:

When you commenced using twitter as a social networking tool, you may have tweeted numerous tweets which were very informative and interesting. Some day you may want to review those tweets, hence do you think it’s as easy to revert back to those tweets that have piled up? Here at this point, this particular tool will help out and you can download all your tweets whenever you wish.

Twitter has realized that people are always in search of old things and that’s why it has come up with such an active tool. Twitter may have got its inspiration from Facebook as Facebook integrates its timeline functions from where users can see their old status.
