i like it that tweets are ephemeral. its good that way. why the need to archive every-fucking-thing? imagine how shit the world would be if everyone could browse everything they ever said? rather than the things memorable enough to remember. or memorable enough to someone else that they'd remember? imagine how many useful people would become lawyers?
