Twitter Now Gives You More
Yesterday morning whilst writing my morning tweets I thought Twitter was having a funny blip when it gave me more than my usual 140 characters, but in my early morning (just got out of bed) mode, I didn’t think much of it until later in the day when my thoughts returned to social media.
Last evening I found an article which confirmed my suspicions…..read more here is this article by Ash Read
Main points are; @names in replies, media attachments (like photos, GIFs, videos, and polls) and quoted Tweets will no longer be counted against the valuable 140 characters that make up a tweet. Hooray! Let’s get Tweeting!

For a few weeks, Hootsuite has been running a header at the top of the page saying that images no longer count as part of the 140, so I knew that was coming, but I didn’t know about the others, Rosie. Thanks so much for sharing this. It will make a HUGE difference in the amount of “content” we can get into a Tweet, now. 🙂
