Google Launches Twitter Archive

Google has launched a timeline of archived Twitter messages, which is organized by topic and allows people to see what the buzz is on Twitter (in the past). It's sort of like a Twitter blog, in the sense that people can go back to certain dates and see what was going on in the Twitter world at the time.

It's not 100% complete yet. Google said only tweets going back to February of this year will be available at launch over the next few days; however, the plan is to resurface tweets as far back as March 2008. The features allow exploration of how the news is broken down at a certain moment in time. For example, what people were saying about the health care legislation in Congress or what were they tweeting about during the Oscar's?
