FYIJSYK: Your Tweets and the Library of Congress…
Did you know you are published in the Library of Congress? Well, if you use Twitter, you soon may be.
On their blog, the Library of Congress announced that they will be storing every public tweet ever. This quite obviously does not mean Direct Messages or any tweets on accounts that are set to private.
Just so the LOC knows what they are getting into, they can expect gems like this from me:
Uh oh, I’m totally self-conscious. I had to put a different flavor of deodorant on each pit. Please don’t make fun if you see me today.
None of the archiving has been done yet but it sounds like more details should be forthcoming in the near future. Get tweeting so you can secure your place on the shelves of the Library of Congress!
