Don’t worry, this isn’t some archival service that will tell you what some user said two years ago.  Historical Tweets is a blog that displays one historically important (and ficticious) tweet every day!  According to the site: 

Books have been ruining history. So many unnecessary words.  Now, with Historical Tweets, history’s most amazing men and women can be fully understood, a mere 140 characters at a time.”

Here’s a real gem from the other day:

If you like, you can even make your own with their handy photoshop template!  They take submissions, so go on out there and get creative!
