If you often find that 280 characters are too few for you to be able to effectively express yourself on Twitter, then perhaps 4,000 characters will suffice. There is a catch, however, as you need to be a subscriber to Twitter’s premium Blue tier to make use of the feature. Oh, and be located in the U.S. Folks in other countries will presumably get the option to post longer tweets soon. If your curious what 4,000 characters look like the image mock above only shows about 1,000 characters. Don't worry though if someone posts a tweet that’s more than 240 characters, the entirety of it won’t appear right there in your feed. Instead, there’ll be a “show more” button that you can select to view the rest of the tweet. #twitter #socialmedia #socialmedianews #twitterblue
