Twitter took the drop of 140 character limit into consideration for a long time in order to obtain more new users. Its proposal has been criticized by its existing users and investors.

CEO Jack Dorsey claimed that Twitter won’t drop 140 character limit when he was interviewed by NBC. Twitter recently welcome its 10th anniversary.

He said:” It’s a good constraint for us. It allows for of-the-moment brevity.” Twitter won’t drop its iconic feature and increase its characters to 10,000.

It has been rumored that Twitter planned to drop 140 character limit in the beginning of this year. Its future character might be increased to 10,000 characters. The rumor suggested the new feature would be effective on March.

Twitter wished to attract more users and enrich its platform by this measure. However, such suppose was against by Twitter users and investors. They complained if Twitter drops such iconic feature, this platform will be more alike Facebook.

It was reported in February that Twitter would like to re-design its timer shaft. Dorsey confirmed that the company had not plan to adjust its timer shaft next week. Many of Twitter’s products have been modified since Dorsey took over CEO last October, such as it launched Moments.

Regardless of its financial issues inside, Dorsey feels optimistic towards its future. He expects Twitter still the most powerful platform in 10 years. Twitter is a fundamental service. He claimed that they know what it is and what it presents. Its global career is just in the beginning stage.
