Twitter Enables Archive Option 25
judgecorp writes "Twitter has delivered on a long-promised feature which allows some users to download their entire Tweet history. The service was promised months ago by CEO Dick Costolo and equivalent features are already available at Facebook. At this stage, only some users can download their archive, and it's not clear how it will be rolled out to all users."

I've read numerous articles claiming that 99% or whatever twitter accounts have either one or zero tweets sent. Probably 99% of them are spammer accounts but 1% of them might be like my account, join up, WTF is this, bye bye, never log in again.
My guess is to control DB load you roll it out by archive size gradually. So corporate PR team who has sent 150K tweets gets it today, then drop the limit by 1K pre day or whatever...
