Twitter removes 140-character limit on Direct Messages.

Twitter has announced in a blog post today the removal of the 140 character limit on Direct Messages. Again the change only applies to direct messages. Your tweets are still limited to 140 characters and that doesn't seem likely to change anytime soon. 

Twitter has started rolling the change to Twitter for Android and iOS, Tweetdeck, Twitter.com and Twitter for Mac. Read the full blog post here.
