In a recent Hangout Wendy Taleo (@wentale) was asking for help finding a twitter archiving tool that would enable easy text manipulation. I think this is it. Maybe some of my other few but fine readers would be interested in Amit Agarwal’s clever Google Drive tool and how to install and use it. And if you find something better, send it her way via her Twitter handle, @wentale .

I do like this tool. I combined this tool with the old mail merge to extract some Twitter poetry here http://wentalearn.blogspot.com.au/2017/04/twitter-lookbook.html
I was disappointed to find that the backdating doesn’t work. Apparently the ‘since’ and ‘until’ advanced parameters are rejected by the Twitter API. Naughty API!
