Twitter released a long-promised feature today, the ability to download all of your tweets. Now you can see every banal thing you’ve ever written, from the beginning of time. Or at least since you signed up for Twitter.

Twitter previously limited people to seeing their last 3,200 tweets, which only seems like it would be more than enough. Users have long clamored for access to the full archive, and company CEO Dick Costolo promised to deliver the goods by year’s end. He squeaked in just under the wire.
