How to Search for Tweets During a Time Period

On Twitter, you can search for terms and users with the search bar. One feature that has not been included yet is to search for tweets based on the date and time they were sent, even if the tweets are stored as historical records at the Library of Congress. The only way to do this is to read a user's profile until you find the date and time of the tweets you want to read.

Instructions

    • 1

      Log into your Twitter account with your user name and password.

      Click "Following" and locate the user's profile you want to read the tweets of. Click their user name to access the profile. You can also type their profile address into the address bar on your web browser of choice. This is done by typing Http://www.twitter.com/theirusername".

      Scroll down the screen and read the tweets. The date and time are located under the 140 character or less message in a small, italicized font. Scroll to the bottom and wait for the page to load if you need to read older tweets that are not featured on the screen.
