    One of the more frustrating aspects to Twitter is the inability to get access to a complete archive of your tweets, particularly if you’re someone who shares a lot of interesting links to content and online services. There are a few work-arounds that can be used to create a Twitter archive. You can favorite all of your tweets or, at least, the ones that are the most interesting. But this is approach is not user-friendly, and finding particular tweets would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

    Scoopler, one of the leading search engines for Twitter, has raised a seed round of $750,000 from a group investors that includes Ron Conway and Michael Birch. The involvement of Conway is particularly newsworthy given he was an early investor in Google and Paypal. The money will be used to expand Scoopler’s team at a time when the real-time search market is starting to attract a growing amount of attention. Scoopler also said it has launched several new features, including “real-time channels” that show the most popular tweets, links, videos and images in categories such as…

    What the Blackberry did for mobile e-mail, there’s a new device hoping to do the same for Twitter. Called the TwitterPeek, it’s a mobile device that promises to offer life-time Twitter access for $199.95 Here’s the sales pitch, which sounds like one of those late-night “call now and we’ll throw in a free set of kinzu knives” offers. I particularly like the last sentence of being able to stay-up-to-date with what Ashton Kutcher and other celebrities are saying on Twitter. From the makers of Twitter and Peek, introducing the world’s first dedicated Twitter…
