Using Twitter as an Archive for Old Diaries

Here is a fascinating use of Twitter. David Griner discovered a diary by his great-aunt from 1937-1941 and decided to create a Twitter account (@Genny_Spencer) to post the daily diary entries. It’s cool to see the new protocol that is Twitter being used as a method to archive pre-Internet era information. Would be great to see more people pursuing something similar.
