Twitter 的轻松表达常常导致名人的尴尬失言和有争议的言论。在快速删除的同时，人们总是想方设法搜索并找到这些已删除的推文。
在本文中，我们将介绍查找某人已删除推文并保存它们的主要方法。从使用Internet Time Machine到浏览 Google 的缓存，有很多很棒的方法可以查看已删除的推文。
通过谷歌搜索
十分之九(Nine)，当一个人正在寻找某人已删除的推文时，该人是著名的名人。那么为何不？我们都喜欢看到这些具有传奇色彩的人物滑倒并犯错误。
寻找已删除的名人推文的好处是您可能不是第一个。从忠实的粉丝到媒体，对这些人物有很多关注。他们的推文很可能已经被外面的人复制和截屏了。
例如，有一个完整的网站专门记录主要政客的已删除推文(a whole website dedicated to recording the deleted tweets of leading politicians)，包括他们的一些更具争议性的言论。
这些已保存推文的最佳来源是Twitter本身。许多精明的用户截取名人推文的屏幕截图，并在它们被删除时分享。这让许多名人的脚牢牢地放在嘴里。
检查谷歌缓存
每个人都知道您的浏览器会缓存网页(caches web pages)以帮助它们更快地加载。但是你知道谷歌(Google)本身也做类似的事情吗？滚动浏览Google结果时，您可能已经注意到某些条目旁边有一个小箭头。单击此箭头可让您查看该站点的缓存版本。
这可以帮助您查看知名Twitter(Twitter)帐户的已删除推文。如果推文最近被删除，它可能仍然存在于缓存中。唯一的问题是该帐户需要足够出名才能让Google对其进行缓存。
- 要查看某人推文的缓存版本，首先谷歌(Google)他们的推特(Twitter)句柄。
- 他们最近的推文将出现在搜索结果中。单击(Click)任何条目旁边的小向下箭头，然后选择缓存。(Cached.)
- 谷歌缓存的推文版本将打开。缓存的日期和时间将显示在顶部。由于新的缓存会覆盖此数据，因此建议您自己截图。
通过使用 Wayback 机器
如果您要查找的已删除推文太旧而无法显示在 Google 的缓存中，并且对于任何人都太陌生而无法保存，那么您最好的选择是使用Wayback Machine(the Wayback Machine)。也称为Internet Time Machine，它是一个将 Internet 上的公共页面存档以供后代使用的网站。
虽然还有其他一些服务可以做同样的事情(other services that can do the same thing)，但Wayback Machine是迄今为止最受欢迎和最可靠的选项。
互联网档案(Internet Archive)保存定期获取的所有公共网页的备份。您可以回到过去并像过去一样查看网站。这包括许多知名人士的Twitter页面。(Twitter)
- 要在档案中搜索已删除的推文，请打开Wayback Machine 网站(Wayback Machine website)。
- 输入(Enter)您要查看其历史记录的Twitter帐户的个人资料链接，然后单击BROWSE HISTORY。
- 将打开一个日历，显示Twitter帐户已存档的所有日期。
- 将鼠标悬停(Hover)在某个日期上可查看当天可用的所有快照以及拍摄快照的时间。
- 单击(Click)快照将其打开。这不仅仅是一个屏幕截图；整个网页将以过去的状态加载。您可以正常与页面交互，并截取您想要的任何推文。
通过搜索 Twitter 档案
到目前为止，我们已经探索了搜索其他人已删除推文的方法。但是，如果您正在寻找一种方法来查看自己已删除的推文怎么办？
这一次，你不必看得太难。Twitter本身维护所有已发布推文的存档，包括已删除的推文。通常，它不允许任何人访问这些数据，但任何用户都可以搜索自己的Twitter历史记录。
- 要下载您的Twitter档案，请打开Twitter主页并单击更多。(More.)
- 从出现的菜单中选择设置和隐私。(Settings and Privacy)
- 这将打开您的帐户设置。单击(Click)右侧窗格中的下载数据存档(Download an archive of your data)选项。
- 您将被要求通过发送到您的电子邮件 ID 的代码来验证您的身份。完成此操作后，您将看到Request archive的按钮。
- Twitter可能需要一整天的时间才能通过电子邮件向您发送存档。解压缩 zip 文件并将其打开后，您的网络浏览器中将打开一个普通的Twitter窗口。(Twitter)唯一添加的是一个搜索框，可让您按日期查找过去的推文。
查找某人已删除的推文并不总是那么容易(Always Easy)
Twitter并没有让任何人都可以轻松搜索已删除的推文。虽然Twitter 存档(Twitter Archive)可以帮助您访问自己的推文历史记录，但要找到其他人删除的推文要困难得多。
如果推文属于名人，则推文很有可能被Twitter 上(Twitter)的其他人截屏和分享。Google是您查找此类实例的最佳朋友。
当这不能为您带来任何结果时，事情就会变得更加棘手。对于最近的推文，您应该查看Twitter句柄的缓存版本，因为Google通常会将旧页面保存数天。但是，如果推文较旧，则可以搜索Wayback Machine 。
How to Search & Find Someone’s Deleted Tweets
Twitter’s ease of expressiоn often leads to еmbarrassing gaffes and controversial statements by celebrities. While quickly deleted, peоple alwayѕ find ways to search аnd find these deleted tweets.
In this article, we will go over the main methods by which you can find someone’s deleted tweets and save them. From using the Internet Time Machine to scrounging through Google’s cache, there are a bunch of great ways for viewing removed tweets.
By Googling
Nine times out of ten, when a person is looking to find someone’s deleted tweets, that someone is a prominent celebrity. And why not? We all like to see these larger-than-life figures slip up and make mistakes.
The good thing about hunting for deleted celebrity tweets is that you’re probably not the first. From devoted fans to the media, there are a lot of eyeballs on these personalities. Chances are that their tweets have already been copied and screen-shotted by someone out there.
For example, there is a whole website dedicated to recording the deleted tweets of leading politicians, including some of their more controversial statements.
The best source of these saved tweets is Twitter itself. Many savvy users take screenshots of celebrity tweets and share them when they get deleted. This has caught many famous individuals with their feet firmly in their mouths.
Check the Google Cache
Everyone knows that your browser caches web pages to help them load faster. But did you know that Google itself does something similar? While scrolling through Google results, you might have noticed a small arrow next to some entries. Clicking on this arrow allows you to view a cached version of that site.
This can help you view a deleted tweet of a prominent Twitter account. If the tweet was deleted very recently, it is possible that it still exists in the cache. The only catch is that the account needs to be famous enough for Google to be caching it.
- To view the cached version of someone’s tweets, first Google their Twitter handle.
- Their recent tweets will show up in search results. Click on the small downwards facing arrow beside any of the entries and select Cached.
- Google’s cached version of the tweet will open up. The date and time of the cache will be displayed on top. As a new cache can overwrite this data, it is recommended to take a screenshot for yourself.
By Using the Wayback Machine
If the deleted tweet you’re looking for is too old to show up in Google’s cache and too unknown for anyone to have saved it, your best bet is to use the Wayback Machine. Also called the Internet Time Machine, it is a website that archives public pages on the internet for posterity.
While there are some other services that can do the same thing, the Wayback Machine is by far the most popular and the most reliable of these options.
The Internet Archive holds backups of all public web pages taken at periodic intervals of time. You can go back in time and view a website as it was in the past. This includes the Twitter pages of many prominent personalities.
- To search the archives for deleted tweets, open the Wayback Machine website.
- Enter the profile link of the Twitter account you want to view the history of and click on BROWSE HISTORY.
- A calendar will open up, displaying all the dates at which the Twitter account has been archived.
- Hover over a date to view all the snapshots available for that day, and the times at which the snapshots were taken.
- Click on a snapshot to open it. It isn’t just a screenshot; the whole webpage will load up in its past state. You can interact with the page normally, and take screenshots of any of the tweets you want.
By Searching the Twitter Archive
So far we have explored methods to search for someone else’s deleted tweets. But what if you are looking for a way to view your own removed tweets?
For once, you don’t have to look too hard. Twitter itself maintains an archive of all published tweets, even the deleted ones. Normally, it doesn’t allow anyone to access this data, but any user can search through their own Twitter history.
- To download your Twitter archive, open the Twitter homepage and click on More.
- Select Settings and Privacy from the menu that appears.
- This opens up your account settings. Click on Download an archive of your data option from the pane on the right.
- You will be asked to verify your identity through a code sent to your email id. Once you have done so, you will see the button to Request archive.
- It can take a whole day for Twitter to email you the archive. Once you extract the zip file and open it, a normal Twitter window will open in your web browser. The only addition is a search box that lets you find your past tweets by their dates.
Finding Someone’s Deleted Tweets Isn’t Always Easy
Twitter hasn’t exactly made it easy for anyone to search for deleted tweets. While the Twitter Archive can help you access your own tweet history, finding someone else’s removed tweets is far more difficult.
In case the tweets belonged to famous personalities, there is a good chance that the tweet was screenshotted and shared by someone else on Twitter. Google is your best friend for finding such instances.
When that doesn’t net you any results, things get a bit more tricky. For recent tweets, you should look in the cached versions of the Twitter handle, as Google often keeps an old page saved for days. If the tweet is older though, the Wayback Machine is the place to search for.
