Do you know who used a smiley :) on Twitter for the first time. Who mentioned terms like Internet of Things, Bitcoin, iPhone or Phablet before they became mainstream? Who started the hashtag #PutOutYourBats?
Our app can help. It discovers the oldest tweets on any topic without you having to do the hard work. Give it a try!
You can use it to find the name of person who started a popular #hashtag, who tweeted the news first, who coined a term, who the original source of a quote is and so on.
Internally, it uses the half-interval search algorithm withs Twitter's advanced search tool to find the first ever tweets containing one or more search keywords. You can even use search operators.
