Vanny, thanks for your reply. I'm using LoudTwitter to post to LiveJournal, but would really like to see Twitter resolve these problems directly, rather than relying on another service. – EllenB, on August 19, 2008 23:03

As a workaround, I installed Twitter Tools to my WordPress blog and it automatically posts my tweets there... That way, I can have a permanent record of my past updates. Of course, if you don't have a WordPress blog, I don't know what the alternatives are.

Ditto that, I'm also a new user and experiencing the same issue. I've contacted their CS via email but no response. – EllenB, on August 19, 2008 14:29

I'm relatively new to Twitter (I've only been doing it for about 3 weeks), and I can't even see past the first 20 updates. I've noticed that not everyone has the same problem though -- some users seem to be less restricted for some obscure reason. ARG. Please fix it!

I want to read my old tweets!

@dacort very kindly posted a follow-up question at the Pagination topic in the Twitter API group and got a response from Alex.

dacort: Soooo....a followup question. Will our own full archives ever be accessible to us again via the Twitter service?

al3x: Yes, that's absolutely a goal. I consider our service defective unless users can export all of their own content.

I have the same problem too. Any updates past a multiple of 20 aren't viewable. Very annoying.

And every other site that becomes overwhelmingly popular offers a small fee to users who want to utilize all the features without limits... I am more than willing to pay my livejournal and flickr fees and Twitter has become just as important to me. After reading that Google link (thank you for posting), it seems more dismal than I even thought.

Maybe I really do need to find a permanent alternative at this point. Blah, that's very upsetting... I had a lot archived on Twitter.

Thanks for posting this link - guess this is the closest we get to an answer. I'll probably begin to invest my own time in Identi.ca and open microblogging rather than sit around waiting for this – Morten Blaabjerg, on July 26, 2008 12:55

The fact that Twitter seems to be ignoring this issue is really starting to piss me off.

psd, you're right -- I just logged out of Twitter and tried to view your feed on my browser, and it *does* display your feed entries without authentication. How strange. When I tried to view my feed last week, it was asking me to login first. – mdy, on July 23, 2008 14:19

Friendfeed gets the data via an XMPP feed, according to http://blog.twitter.com/2008/07/twitter-and-xmpp-drinking-from-fire.html, so they're not dependent on the RSS. – mdy, on July 23, 2008 14:09

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

my RSS http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/13486.rss doesn't require authentication, works OK from curl so it should work in Reader, FriendFeed etc – psd, on July 22, 2008 23:59

Feeds still seems to work well with FriendFeed, it seems...? – Morten Blaabjerg, on July 22, 2008 23:53

And how many people have to respond to this problem before Twitter addresses it either way?

Is it really possible that Twitter is letting its users' personal content disappear without keeping us properly updated? Super lame.

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

Yes, they've added authentication to our profile RSS. Unfortunately, Google Reader doesn't support authenticated feeds yet. But there are other feed readers that can. – mdy, on July 22, 2008 12:19
