Today I learned how to send complete twitter messages

How to send complete twitter messages



Twitter started its 140 character only rule due to IOS archaic rules that Texts could only be 140 characters long

well screw you Steve Jobs!*

Clearly textings can be essay length now, and this rule in my opinion is a bunch of hog poo ...well no and yes. I like to skim and scroll, I say shorten the tops of messages perhaps or insist that messages have appropriate titles so I can choose not to read it if I like (like an email) but 140 characters? HELL no 
    I can't seem to wrap my head around it so what can you do?

Start a blog. start several if you want. call it JeraldPratersTwitterCrap, well put your own name in. then you get a chrome extension either Bitly or HootSuite. you compose your blog message even include photos Videos music, finish it up pretty and then click on the Hootsuite extension and you immediately get a box which will post for you on twitter and facebook if you choose and it will direct others to your blog. so you get the whole message out. I love this way.

There were in the few years past services on the web which were "twittershortening" but it looks like all but a bare few still are in service, so? this is the way for today to go

Yay

If you cant understand what i am saying I might do the search for you in finding an instructional video "how to add a hootsuite extension into your browser" OR "how to start your first Blogger" no prob just give me a shout in the comments below
