While the popular news and social networking service has long stood by their 140 character limit for 'tweets,' they have been talking about introducing a larger cap for some time. Finally, it is here and now just about everyone has access to 280 characters to express their inner thoughts and desires, feelings and intuitions.
Oh boy. Here we go.
People were so excited for the upgrade, they got nervous!
Of course, some knew exactly what they would talk about.
Before open-access, certain celebrities could take part early.
Users had been waiting for this moment for a while.
Like to showcase their favorite rap!
Obviously emojis counted, and brands were quick to hop on!
When TV shows got involved, the references got absurd.
And in case you hadn't heard about it already...
But some users got REALLY clever with their new space!
Who would have thought this would fit so perfectly?
Then there were the accounts that expected too much.
At times, it got way too much to "bear!"
Then there were the stars that wanted to make a point.
Or tweets that flew in the face of reason...
There are still jokes being made in good spirit.
In fact, everyone got in on the fun in some way or another!
Some organizations decided to use this as an opportunity.
And others found the perfect way to express themselves!
