Now DM your Twitter Followers in 10000 Characters

Twitter is awesome for status updates; going to conference hall / meeting in cafeteria / come to shopping mall / let’s have lunch together this Sunday. Once built for such types of quick status updates, the microblogging website is expanding its horizons now. Nearly a month back Twitter has enabled comments with Retweets. I often felt the use of this feature while retweeting tweets from tweeters like HBR blogs and alike.


Next big thing that coming from Twitter is removal of 140 characters from DMs (Direct Messages). Come July 2015 and you will be able to DM your friends in 10000 characters reports Twitter’s Developers Blog

Twitter wants you to use it more. Status updates in 140 characters in not any less. But at times you need to switch applications when in need to write longer messages. Writing everything precisely in 140 characters in a DM to your colleagues is quite impossible especially if its something official related a project.

You can ask someone to join you in cafeteria but to question whether your friend wants black coffee or a latte is something undoable in 140 set character limits. You can not write a Latte as Late or Lat. That is way to much confusing for many.

Wait till July when you can add a Burger with a Latte!

My High School English teacher was a Gold Medalist. He never studied more than 2 hours a day. #3. Eat when Hungry: Calories from right sources in right amount. No you do not need a weighing scale to do this. Human body always tells what is good, what is bad. Elephant never eats grass. It counts on tree trunks and nobody teach an elephant what is a balanced diet. Listen to your body. #4. Read: Not necessary to understand Classical Mechanics if you can that's good. If its not your choice rea...

Children's Day 2025 and Books by NehruJi, The First Prime Minsiter of India

Knowledge is a sharp tool; Pen is a mighty weapon. When both work together creates a Dynamo of Wisdom, a powerhouse, a constant source of energy. Perhaps some of you readers would agree with me, some not, the word 'Chacha' or 'Uncle' largely signifies to the protector, the person who rises above the occasion to take care of you, take care of your needs without personal gain or wants.
