Maxitweet gives you 200 characters from Twitter

By: (more) | Social Networking News | Posted: Aug 14, 2009 3:49 pm

In today's episode of short attention span theatre we will show you how to expand your attention from a mere 2 seconds to a staggering 3.5.

 

To do this all you need to do is expand your twitter from 140 characters to 200. I am not sure why you would want to do this. After all most of your followers would not be interested in anything that would require them to read an additional 60 letters and/or spaces.

 

But as this must be in some sort of demand a company in New Zealand has found a way to do it. What they do is allow you to put your "tweet" into their web page and convert it to a slimmer version using Unicode characters. This makes your tweet look like a letter from a bad TV movie killer but does allow you to drone on about all the little things you are doing.

 

The companies name is Maxitweet and as an enjoyable diversion you can also view the best tweets ever on their webpage.
