Twitter this week released plans for a global test of raising their iconic 140 character limit to 280 in order to expand their current content offering. As the 140 characters have become something of a trademark for the platform, the news of the change has provoked a range of emotions with users. Many believe this will help create more emotion in posts due to 140 characters being limiting, but others believe 280 will allow users to waffle and be less creative. What’s your view: should Twitter be raising the limit or sticking to 140 characters?
Some users can now share tweets of up to 280 characters #Twitter https://t.co/msPgU9YxtX
