Memories may fade, will pixels last forever?

Preserving the first social media Presidency at the White House.

Looks like the White House has a plan for preserving and passing on the digital history of the Obama administration, making available its entire social media archive of the past eight years and inviting citizens, students, companies, and organizations to “come up with creative ways to archive this content and make it both useful and available for years to come”, to build research tools, art projects, and the like.

Yes, you can download the White House’s Twitter, Facebook, and Vine archives plus all of the tweets published by President Obama and the First Lady. Find out more at The White House Blog.
