Micro-blogging and social-networking platform Twitter has just announced that it had opened its tweet archive to those who use its service in 12 non-English languages.
The move is yet another way for the company to reach out to its global audience, which makes 70% of its 200 million monthly user base according to Twitter’s most recent stats, TechCrunch reported.
Twitter’s archiving tool, which gives users access to their own tweet archive, enabling them to see all of their tweets and re-tweets, is now available in Dutch, Farsi, Finnish, German, French, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Malay, Norwegian, Polish and Spanish.
The archive feature was launched in December 2012 and until now was available only for English language users of Twitter. Upon its launch, the company said that it would be rolling out the service gradually to make it finally accessible to all supported languages.
This is Twitter’s latest step in its global growth efforts since January, when it expanded its advertising services in the Middle East and North Africa after usage in that region tripled over 2012.
Back in January, Twitter said that 70% of its 200 million monthly user base came from outside the US and that its platform was being used in 33 languages.
