Twitter Increase the Character Limit of Tweets to 280 Characters

Twitter announced today that it finally lift the 140 character limit of tweets on its social networking platform, allowing users worldwide to tweet longer tweets composed of up to 280 characters.

In September, Twitter launched an experimental program, which was available only to a limited numbers of users, to test the 280-characters limit on tweets and see how their infrastructure would react, as well as to monitor if the speed of their platform remains unchanged.

Apparently, the experiment was a success, and now Twitter is rolling out the 280-character limit to all languages that need it (see below for languages that don't need 280 characters). During their research, they also discovered that only 5% of tweets were longer than 140 characters, and only 2% passed 190 characters.

"During the first few days of the test many people Tweeted the full 280 limit because it was new and novel, but soon after behavior normalized," said Aliza Rosen, Product Manager at Twitter. "We saw when people needed to use more than 140 characters, they Tweeted more easily and more often."
