Power of the 140 Characters
You can post up to 140 characters in your Tweets – that’s the beauty of this service for sure. This is the absolute limit and you won’t ever post more than 140 characters per tweet. For me, It’s actually enough to do some basic communication between you and your followers and it’s good for a several reasons:
- Fast – You’ll be able to post quickly what do you think right now.
- Message Delivery – Your followers will probably read your tweet because it’s short.
- Say all you Need to Say – I think that you can say whatever you need to say within 140 characters.
- SMS – Because of this limitation you’ll be able to post tweets and get updates directly to your phone via SMS.
