280 characters not enough? Twitter now lets you post “longer” tweets, but conditions apply

Twitter has announced a big change to its platform- the arrival of long-format tweets. This new feature will allow users to express themselves in a more comprehensive way breaking the 140-character limit that has been around for a long time now.

“Need more than 280 characters to express yourself? we know that lots of you do… and while we love a good thread, sometimes you just want to Tweet everything all at once. we get that. So we’re introducing longer Tweets,” the microblogging platform announced from its Twitter account.
