140 characters stay
Print Edition
TWITTER Inc’s 140-character tweets are here to stay, Chief Executive Jack Dorsey said Friday, ending speculation that the microblogging site might abandon one of its trademark features for a 10,000-character limit.
“It’s staying. It’s a good constraint for us and it allows for of-the-moment brevity,” Dorsey said on NBC’s Today Show.
A Twitter spokesman declined to elaborate.
In January, technology news website Re/code reported that Twitter was building a new feature that would allow tweets as long as 10,000 characters.
Twitter has declined to comment on the feature directly. But Dorsey tweeted the day of the report that the company had seen more screenshots of text posted as a way to get around the 140-character limit.
