I have posted earlier about few apps and tools using which you can download and backup your tweets. And now, Twitter is officially having the feature to download your Twitter tweets archive.
Twitter provides the tweet archive in a nice web interface where you can navigate easily and look at your previous tweets. You can even check your first tweet ever. You can also search for a particular tweet from the search box in your Twitter archive.
You can easily download your entire Twitter archive in just few simple steps which is explained below. Though this feature is not available to all Twitter users right now but soon, it will be.

You can browse the tweets according to the month and year or you can search for tweets from the search bar given at the top of the archive. You can even view photos on your tweets but you need an Internet connection for that.
Your Twitter archive also includes the ReTweets by you of other users. But if you want to look for a conversation then you will have to visit the online version of Twitter by clicking on the "View on Twitter" link below a tweet of that conversation.
