Twitter Plan To Abandon 140-Character Limit Is Risky Proposition

Rumors are flying that Twitter is considering scrapping the iconic 140-character limit on tweets—possibly expanding it well into the thousands. A Re/Code story quoting anonymous sources suggests Twitter could raise the limit as high as 10,000. The problem Twitter faces is that it risks surrendering the unique thing that makes it Twitter. Without that differentiation it may be overshadowed by other social network platforms that do the same thing better.
