Now, create tweetstorms with Twitter threads

Updated:7 years, 10 months ago

New Delhi, Dec 13 (ANI): Now, Twitter users can build "tweetstorms" by linking together posts in "threads" to expound at length at the famously short-form messaging service. The micro-blogging site made the announcement just a month after it rattled the twitterverse by doubling the limit for tweets in most languages to 280 characters. It was the first time the character cap was raised since Twitter was founded. An "add another tweet" button is being added to the Twitter application, along with a "show this thread" label that can be clicked to see posts woven together by authors. Threaded tweets will be published at the same time, but more posts can be added, according to Reddy. Twitter posts about a topic, typically fired off in rapid succession by someone intent on writing more than allowed by the character limit, have been referred to as "tweetstorms." Threads will be rolled out in an update to Twitter in the coming weeks.
