1. How does one do a 280?

3. I will wait till it is available, but there should be accounts they can exclude from

this new feature, like dumbshit in chief.

I wish we could all buy TWITTER and kick him off.

5. Why not? It's a publicly traded company.

But I don't think you can raise enough money to buy a company like that through Go Fund Me.

4. Huh! Had to look this up. English is "especially impacted by cramming."

I certainly feel "impacted" on my rare tweets but had no idea some languages weren't -- "cramming, which includes every language except for Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. ... The average length of a tweet in Japanese is 15 characters, and only 0.4 percent of tweets hit the 140-character limit,..."

We'll find out soon enough the impact of 280 on Tweety. Thesis topic anyone?
