Twitter to Stop Counting Links, Photos in 140-Limit<\/h2>\n

Twitter to Stop Counting Links, Photos in 140-Limit<\/p><\/div>\n

Tweets are about to get longer. The social network will soon stop counting users\u2019 photos and links as part of its 140-character limit for messages.<\/p>\n

The change, which Twitter has yet to formally announced publicly, will likely be implemented by the end of this month, Bloomberg reports.<\/p>\n

To Twitter users, cutting out the links in the character limit could be a big savings in crafting their messages. Links take up about 23 characters, even when Twitter automatically shortens them.<\/p>\n

Twitter\u2019s CEO Jack Dorsey said in January that the company would be experimenting with new ways to display text on Twitter. The 140-character limit has been with Twitter since its beginnings in 2006. But the limit was initially in place so that tweets would fit all within a mobile text message. Now, with the growth of smartphones, the 140-character limit no longer seems as important, some users have argued.<\/p>\n

\u201cRemoving the character requirement for links and photos may encourage users to add more media to their posts,\u201d Bloomberg reports.<\/p>\n

Twitter has seen its growth stall in recent months. In its latest quarterly update, the number of monthly active users totaled 310 million, just a 3 percent increase compared to last year.<\/p>\n
