Twitter Adds 'Search By Date' Feature

Twitter Adds "Search By Date" Feature

Twitter has added a new feature that makes it easier for its users to find old tweets.

With about a billion tweets sent every two days, you can imagine how difficult archiving and making all this content searchable must be. And that’s why, in the past, it has been notoriously difficult to search through old tweets. In fact, it was just February of 2013 that Twitter allowed tweets older than seven days to show up in search results at all.

But it looks like the company is moving quickly to give its users access to the massive amounts of past tweets it has accumulated.
