“Your Twitter Archive” tests begin, arriving this month

You can now finally access your old tweets through Twitter’s new feature “Your Twitter Archive”.

However, several users can experience the new feature already. Only a selected few were chosen for testing. If you are one of the lucky few, you can find the option to download your Twitter archive in the site’s settings menu.

From there you will be able to access all your tweets, from your very first one. Once you inform Twitter that you would like to receive an archive of your tweets, they will mail you the download link once it’s ready.

This new feature should be coming to all users before the year ends if the Twitter CEO keeps his promise. For the mean time, a very few percentage of users will only be experiencing the said feature.

It would be a nice addition to Twitter. Once we see our tweets years ago, we would all be experiencing various phenomena like nostalgia, shame, laughter and more.

Facebook planning to acquire WhatsApp?

Sources tell TechCrunch that social media giant Facebook is interested in buying popular mobile chat program WhatsApp.

Mark Zuckerberg believes that the future of Facebook is in mobile and its $1 billion acquisition of mobile app Instagram proves that the social network is serious in going down that path. Now there are news circulating that Facebook is in talks to buy WhatsApp to further improve its presence in cross-platform mobile messaging.

So far there’s no information regarding price range and how Facebook will utilize the messaging platform if ever it pushes through with the acquisition.

WhatsApp is an ad-free smartphone messaging app that works on Android, BlackBerry, iOS, Symbian, and Windows Phone. Earlier this year it reported on its blog that it was sending over a billion messages a day. “That is 41,666,667 messages an hour, 694,444 messages a minute, and 11,574 messages a second.”
