Twitter Finally Relaxes 140 Character Limit
Twitter Finally Relaxes 140 Character Limit
Twitter finally relaxes the 140 character limit thats been its signature feature since its launch. Twitter has excluded images, quotes, and other media to count from its 140-character limit of tweets. The move was announce today by social media giant.


You can only get 140 characters towards text messages and links, but adding quotes, polls, videos, or images will no longer reduce precious characters.
We have been expecting twitter to make this move before now, Twitter likely worried about the implications of expending its character limit; the brevity of tweets has largely defined the social networks character. This seems like a fair compromise.
The company did consider increasing the limit to 10,000 characters once upon a time, according to Recode, but the idea was scrapped. In the meantime, the Verge reports the company is testing other ways to give you more breathing room:
The company is also testing out new replies that will omit the username of the person you are replying to from the character limit. If you reply to multiple people at once, Twitter only omits the person who sent the original tweet from the character count.
The expanded tweets are rolling out now so you may not be able to use them quite yet, but expect to be able to send longer tweets anytime now.ll only get 140 characters towards text messages and links, but adding quotes, polls, videos, or images will no longer reduce precious characters.

Instagram is finally adding more features to its platform for more serious photographers rather than just social media lovers. Multiple aspect ratios helped you share images as they were meant to be seen and opened up some creative opportunities, while zoom lets you to see the full details of image or video.
Normally Android users will always wait for a while, the zoom in will arrive for Android users in the coming weeks. No word on Windows support though.
In any case, its nice to see arguably the most basic of photo browsing features show up in Instagram, six years after it launched. Head on over to the iOS app store to see what the new features looks like.
