Post Longer Than 140 Characters Tweets on Twitter

A lot of people find it very difficult to express their thoughts or share a view on twitter due to their character limits. To be honest, I can make the most out of 140 characters; maybe because I have been on this thing for a while or maybe I know too much J.

If 140 characters are not enough then you should consider the twitter tools below. I have compiled a small list of powerful tools that will allow you to post longer tweets. I hope you find them useful.

Tools That Let You Post Longer Tweets:

Twitlonger-  This tool will allow you to sign up using the Twitter OAuth and thus you will be able to post longer tweets on Twitter. All you have to do is just login and you will be given a huge text area to write your tweet. What it does is, it will post your tweet with a link to it to view the entire text. Pretty sick isn’t it…

TweetCut- This tool doesn’t give you extra space or characters but it shortens your tweet by using available and common abbreviations and thus making your tweets shorter so you can add more lines..

RichTweets- One of my favorites. This tool allows you to create full HTML Tweets with colors, images, videos and widgets. You can connect it with your twitter account and when you post it here, it automatically gets posted on your twitter account.  YouTube videos can be easily added and alternately, you can embed other videos by simply inputting the full code in the video embed box. You can use it as another twitter manager such as hootsuite, tweetdeck etc. This is a good find.

XLTweet- When you have more to say but limited space, just XL tweet it. This tool is quite easy to use and comes in handy when you want to post longer tweets. Simply type in the text, provide your Twitter account details and bingo!!

MaxiTweets- It allows up to 200 characters long tweets, which is an increase of nearly 50%. They have opened up several new possibilities for the fast growing Twitter communications platform.  So get more out of Twitter now with maxitweets: up to 200 letters.

TwerBose- It is a simple web application that allows you to post huge tweets via the Twitter API. All you have to do is write your long tweets and post it; the tool will shrink it down and post it to your twitter stream. Best part is that your followers and people will be able to comment on your tweets and also share it with their friends, amazing!!

ezTweets- This one lets you post both of Twitter and Facebook. With ezTweets you can write big-ass posts. It simply takes your longer tweets (more than 140 characters long) and split them neatly, marks the tweet in a sequential manner and posts them to your Twitter timeline all at once. Best part, there is no characters limit…

JumboTweet- Jumbo is a Hippo and it helps Twitter post larger tweets between users. Jumbo lets you write longer post messages, and engage in more meaningful interactions on Twitter.

Please feel free to share these useful tools and spread the word…
