See these photos of Rio’s drug war this past weekend: http://j.mp/hpOdmT then read this story: http://j.mp/fvzRhn
-
@TimHaines Look, see what you’ve done now? http://j.mp/i6Nb9M
-
@aegirthor Zing!
-
@TimHaines If that’s a serious question, I have no idea. If not serious, then, touché.
-
@mko @TimHaines And unless I go back & fav these tweets, or curate them somehow, this exact thread will nearly vanish within a few days.
-
@kaikemono That, to me, fails to meet the definition of accessible then. I want to ensure useful data is still accessible years from now.
-
@RichWestiStrat I know him pretty well. But I also know he limits the traveling & speaking he does now that he has a family. ;-)
-
@mko @TimHaines Unless any of those made it into the public library system, or our parents used acid-free paper, we won’t.
-
@MaticPelcl I’m not just asking about tweets though. There’s a larger issue of data preservation that intrigues me.
-
@TimHaines Amen, brother. So how are we, or our offspring, supposed to find the non-transient data many more years down the road?
-
@mko Most data (not just tweets) is transient. Problem is, you’re not always aware of what is and what isn’t at the time of creation.
-
@meangrape So re: being findable & accessible in >50 years, if the most permanent storage is clay or stone, no hope for all but most worthy?
-
@marshallk Exactly. And you see the larger implied question I’m asking about data preservation, even beyond Twitter?
-
@taylorbarriger See, you understand the larger question I’m asking – and it goes beyond Twitter too…
-
@uxpin I don’t have any more confidence in paper’s ability to endure, let alone, be easily findable or accessible years from now.
-
@martinpolley You see the bigger question I’m asking, right?
-
@meangrape But will the LoC still be relevant in 100 (more) years? Is that our only non-profit-driven hope for long-term data preservation?
-
Will I (or someone) be able to easily find and access this tweet 10 years from now? 50 years? 100?
-
@sippey Agreed. Ideally, an “open exchange of information” shouldn’t limit ease of access to just the past few days.
-
@jordanbrown @sacca Now if we could only guarantee this data would be around and accessible to us in 15-20 years…
-
@_dew Yeah, I knew folks would hit that, and feel a bit if disdain for the limit. I’m asking around to see why it’s still at 3200.
-
@_dew Yes, every single one of *my* tweets. I’m still at only at 2,800 or so.
-
@sacca As in, don’t let a tweet be the only record if it. (’cause it’s painful trying to navigate back even to year-old tweets)
-
@anildash Been there, done that. This is pocketable, doesn’t require a connection. Plus I can add private notes to it whenever I want.
-
@samvermette See the last option to “Download previous tweets” at the bottom of the Twitter feed screen. (subject to the 3200 API limit).
-
@anildash Also, see previous tweet about it storing every tweet I’ve ever written (subject to the 3200 API limit, of course).
-
@anildash I was sold before even downloading it, utility-wise. It’s an app I’ve always wanted without knowing it. Plus, nice design.
-
@mikster Every single tweet of *mine* since I’m still under the limit. I’m nudging a few people to see if it’s time to reconsider. No idea.
-
@Ed And I’d be willing to wager what that bet would’ve been about. ;-)
-
@reelspit Also, meanwhile, I just noted that you’re barely over the current limit. Good time to grab almost all of your tweets.
-
.@reelspit 3200 tweets is the current limit imposed by Twitter’s API. Might need to nudge someone about reconsidering now. cc: @rsarver
-
@gizmosachin Hmm, maybe. Though that’s what attracted me to it at first – nothing ever in danger of getting unintentionally shared.
-
@Ed Of course, the app is limited by the API’s cap of 3200 tweets, which I’m still just shy of.
-
@ChrisTeso Not date-limited, but capped at 3200 total. Fortunately for me, I’m still (just) under the limit.
-
@HilzFuld Nice design. But its utility is what won me over before even downloading it. It’s the app I’ve always wanted without knowing it.
-
One reason I love @MomentoApp: an entire archive of every single tweet I’ve ever written, now stored in my pocket, accessible by date.
-
My first few minutes with @MomentoApp and I’m possibly the most impressed I’ve ever been with an iPhone app.
-
@parislemon Wow, thanks for the tip. Impressed with Momento so far. It just imported every tweet I’ve ever written.
-
@owenbrainard Awesome. You need to write that down (more than just in a tweet) to show it to her when she’s grown up.
-
Pulling together something related to the out-of-print Cocktail book I designed 12 years ago – http://amzn.to/eStwdm Stay tuned for info.
-
Anyone used software, a service, or a widget that enables you to auction a single item from your own domain?
-
@SantacruzMart It’s all JavaScript – most of the client is rendered with JS.
-
@maupuia That shouldn’t be permanent, Mike. Sometimes tweets fall out of cache, but should come back. Let us know if that doesn’t happen.
-
@rakesh314 That’s what we do already.
-
@mko Crazy how it sometimes comes back around to what already exists, eh. Though that said, definitely is room for improvement.
-
@inkpixelspaper That’s fine. Just don’t be shocked or angered when we change things that break what you’ve taught everyone to do. ;-)
-
@KuraFire I’m noting that my form of auto-list-linking in that last tweet broke in #newtwitter. Reported.
