When will I be able to search for really old tweets on search.twitter.com?
When will we be able to search for tweets older than 2008 on search.twitter.com?
I'd really like to be able to search through ALL of my (and others') tweets.

Inappropriate?currently, I can't even find some tweets that were made a few months ago with search.twitter.com. For example, I know I made a tweet about a funny gumby episode I saw on youtube and wanted to retweet it, but my search brought up nothing, but when I did a google search for "gumby srizvi1 site:twitter.com," it found that post. Unfortunately, it found it via a m.twitter.com page so I can't see that gumby result I want to see from actually within the m.twitter.com page, I can only see it from the google page itself. And twitter's new way of browsing older tweets using the more button makes it hard for me to go back so many months to find that particular tweet (I made it in December 24th)

You should still be able to use ?page=, and if you use the xml version of your page (find the info on the apiwiki.twitter.com) you can use count=200 and therefore go through more tweets faster. -
Thanks Thomas, that's the info I was looking to find out -
Inappropriate?Another solution: use friendfeed search, it searches older tweets than twitter search: http://friendfeed.com/search
