Twitter Officially Giving 280 Characters To Tweet
Yes you heard right, now Twitter is not limit to 140 characters its increase up-to 280 characters. Twitter is the biggest Social networking website is expanding its character limit.
We – and many of you – were concerned that timelines may fill up with 280 character Tweets, and people with the new limit would always use up the whole space. But that didn’t happen. Only 5% of Tweets sent were longer than 140 characters and only 2% were over 190 characters. As a result, your timeline reading experience should not substantially change, you’ll still see about the same amount of Tweets in your timeline. For reference, in the timeline, Tweets with an image or poll usually take up more space than a 190 character Tweet, said in blog.We're expanding the character limit! We want it to be easier and faster for everyone to express themselves.— Twitter (@Twitter) November 7, 2017
