Twitter may soon allow tweets over 140 characters

JMH · Oct 1, 2015

Since its initial rollout, Twitter has been a rather unique social network, limiting the number of characters usable in a single tweet. This feature resulted in compressed posts and as a consequence, content distributed on the platform is in a concise, and minimal form.

According to re/code, Twitter is now considering increasing the character limit in public tweets, as stated by individuals familiar with company plans. Sources have stated that interim CEO Jack Dorsey has once again revisited the possibility of an alteration after large numbers of users have contacted the company irritated by the tight restrictions currently imposed.
