Twitter to expand 140 character limit to 10,000

If reports are to be believed twitter Inc is building a new feature that will allow users to post tweets as long as 10,000 characters, well beyond its current 140-character limit. Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey tweeted a screenshot of text (how fitting) explaining the thinking behind increasing the character limit. He added that the company has seen more people sharing screenshots of text, which are a way to get around the 140-character limit.
