At the moment, it's not clear just what this product will look like.</p> <!--break--> <p>According to Re/code:</p>

<p>In addition to the long-form product, execs have been openly discussing the idea of tweaking how Twitter measures its 140-character limit by removing things like links and user handles from the count, multiple sources say.</p>

<p>Twitter has already removed the 140 character limit for direct messages (http://www.imore.com/twitter-begins-removing-140-character-limit-direct-messages), and there are third-party products that allow users to post images with text that get around the current limit.</p> <p>Source: Re/code (http://recode.net/2015/09/29/twitter-plans-to-go-beyond-its-140-character-limit/)</p> </div></div></div><br clear='all'/>
