I’ve seen some Twitter traffic recently from people who have tried to look back and see what their very first tweet was. To their surprise, they couldn’t find it! It makes sense really, Twitter has so many messages that it would be really hard to keep them all forever. Luckily, a local Austin company will take care of that problem for you for free.

BackupMyTweets will backup all your tweets so you can retrieve them whenever you need. You don’t even have to give them your Twitter password! It seems to work by just signing up for an account, and then letting BackupMyTweets follow your Twitter feed.

If you want to sign up, or find out more information you can check out the website at www.backupmytweets.com, and follow them on Twitter @backupmytweets.

If you find the concept interesting, they also have offerings to backup your email, your blog, and your online photos.
