If Twitter’s 140 character limit cramps your expressive style, your prayers may soon be answered. The Telegraph is circulating rumors that Twitter will be offering video tweeting in the near future.
If the rumors are true, Twitter users would be able to upload videos from their computer or mobile. Of course, video tweeting will also be subject to space and time constraints. So what will be the limit now? Express yourself in 10 seconds? 20? Looks like this may be a challenge to speed talkers everywhere.
Currently there are third-party video tweeting sites, but Twitter would definitely upset their market. Check out the video of Tweetube, a current video tweeting service.
