I think it&#x27;s time to rethink the 140 charcter limit.<p>When people want to post more than 140 characters, they include it as an image (so not searchable), which is considerably more effort.<p>Why not allow longer tweets, and only show the first 140 chars by default (along with an indication of how long it&#x27;s going to be), and then load or show the rest on demand?
