Think of all the things your tweets could do if they were free. Free to explore. Free to continue to have meaning. Free to remind us of timeless relevance. Your tweets want to be free!
Now, however, most tweets are ephemeral, living only a few seconds before being locked away in the dungeon of Twitter's archives. They are hard to find and easy to lose. And while many tweets are, [yawn] boring, they are still your tweets and you'd like to be reminded of your past experiences from time to time. In addition, there are "topical" tweets from others that interest you, that you'd like to call on one day for inspiration or even a simple reminder, but those are even more difficult to dig up.
Free the Tweets aims to, well, how to say this... FREE THE TWEETS!. We want to make it easy for you to archive and search your own tweets as well as archive twitter searches to see trends and changes over time.
