Las social media They are already one more element of our lives. Almost everyone has an account. FacebookInstagram, Twitter, WhatsApp o Telegram.

For example, knowing what our first publication was on each of these networks.

Twitter

The blue bird’s social network has been with us since 2006, although it was at the beginning of the last decade that it exploded as an important medium.

Many have had a Twitter account for more than a decade, so finding our first tweet becomes a daunting task.

Fortunately, there is an easy way to do it from the desktop version of the microblogging app.

You only need to have the date of creation of your account, which is available in the section “About” in your profile.

With this information you only have to include the following formula in the Twitter search engine (from:xxxx) until:xxxx-xx-xx since:xxxx-xx-xx

Now replace the “x” with the following data: in the “from” section place your account (but without the at sign), in “until” where you want the search to end (starting with the year, then the month, and finally the day), and in “since” where the search starts.

This would be an example:

After seeing that Elon Musk’s account became active in June 2009, we put this into the Twitter search engine: (from:elonmusk) until:2010-12-30 since:2009-06-01

So we discovered that Elon Musk’s first tweet was this, and it was published a year after the account was opened:

Just do the same with your own account to find yourself in seconds with your first tweet.

Facebook

It is also very easy to recover a memory in Facebookbeyond those that the same app shows us every day.

Simply go to the ‘Settings and privacy’ section of the app, then choose ‘Activity log’, and finally select ‘Your posts’ or ‘posts and comments’.

Initially the most recent publications will appear, but among the “filters” you can choose the date, having access to a calendar that allows you to browse your history in Facebook.

Thus, it is only enough to choose the most remote date, to access your first publications in Facebook.

Instagram

In Instagram There is no easy way to achieve this, only with unofficial extensions.

But, the least complicated way is through the desktop version, which makes it less complex to scroll until you reach the first post.

Once located, if you want to make it easier to access it again, just enter the publication and save it by pressing the button that looks like an inverted flag that is on the far right.

Now it will be very easy to see it just by entering your saved posts section.

WhatsApp

There is no initial publication as such in WhatsAppbut many long talks that we have had with some contact.

To access the first comment of a conversation there is no easy way to do it if you did not foresee it before.

In other words, you should have selected the first message in the conversation as “highlighted” when you launched or received it.

This way you would have access to it from the “see contact” section, which appears when you enter a conversation, where the “starred messages” will appear saved.

The other solution is to remember what the beginning of the conversation was about, to use the internal search engine to access the beginning of the conversation, but this is only available to people with a very good memory.

Telegram

Telegram it is much friendlier in this aspect.

Just enter a conversation and select the three points that appear on the right.

Next, choose the magnifying glass (“search”) sign and a calendar-shaped button will be enabled right on the white strip above the keyboard.

Select this option and you can easily get to the exact day the conversation started.
