Twitter Increases the Direct Message Character Limit:
There are two types of message conveying options are available with the Twitter. One is the traditional tweet, which allows you to share something publicly on your timeline. The second way of communication is termed as the Direct Message. Interestingly, Twitter limited the both communication to be possible only at the limited 140 Characters.

Just in order to make the users feel comfortable about sharing their feelings beyond the limit, Twitter made an official announcement for the same. From today, Twitter increased the private message or the Direct Message Character Limit from the traditional 140 Characters to 1000 Characters.
