Twitter
is great for asking questions and getting answers, But
because so many people are using Twitter, old Twitter
messages, or "Tweets," disappear from
Twitter's search index (search.twitter.com) after a week
or two. And keeping track of the different replies to
your messages can be difficult. A free service called
Twitoaster.com archives and organizes your Twitter
conversations, so you can easily refer to them later.
1. Go to
Twitoaster.com and click "Log in with Twitter"
on the top right.
2. You
will be automatically taken to a Twitter page asking if
you want to connect your Twitter account to Twitoaster.
If you aren't currently logged into your Twitter
account, you'll have enter your username and password.
Click "Allow." Twitoaster will now start
syncing your account. Click to follow Twitoaster, so you
receive a direct message once the sync is finished.
3. Once
you get the direct message from Twitoaster (which should
come to the e-mail account associated with your
account), click on the link to view your "twitoasted
conversations," which are Twitter messages you sent
that people replied to, or retweeted.
4. Each
message has a little number next to it, which designates
the number of messages in response to your message.
Clicking on the number will reveal the replies. You can
also use the search box to search through your
conversations.
5.
Twitoaster isn't perfect, but it does a great job of
organizing your Twitter conversations. For a list of
other tools, including ones that will archive all of
your Tweets, see this post from the tech blog Read Write
