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!
