A Few Big Thoughts on the #Twitter10K Tweet News

How 10K helps Twitter move closer to its roots, and why it isn’t a concession to brands. A few weeks ago, re/code broke the likely-true rumor that Twitter is set to expand its character limit, potentially up to 10,000 characters.

Twitter favorites & follows only show in timeline when no updates twice in a row

When Twitter began showing favorites and follows in the Twitter timeline, there was a lot of confusion about why this would trigger.  Some users were seeing it consistently, while others weren’t seeing it at all.

Twitter Removes Bing Translations While Yelp Adds Them

Twitter has quietly removed the option to translate tweets from their platform.  The addition made it easy for users to translate tweets made in other languages, something that was valuable for those working in international markets or simply those with friends around the world.

Twitter Advertisers Beware of Non-Legitimate Clicks & Engagement

There has been a tweet by Tom Scott making the rounds with over 12,000 retweets, alerting users that anytime you reply to promoted tweet – even with just heckling – the advertiser gets charged. I just found out that replying to a promoted tweet, even just with heckling, costs the promoter between 50¢ and $5. […]

Twitter Embeds Linked Tweets on Web Version of Twitter

Last month Twitter began embedding linked tweets for both the iOS and Android Twitter apps.  Now, the change has moved to the desktop web version of Twitter.

Twitter Testing Descriptive Hashtags With Definitions
