Twitter Rolls Out 280-Character Limit to Everyone
Twitter has announced, after their initial testing, everyone is now getting 280 characters to tweet with:
During the first few days of the test many people Tweeted the full 280 limit because it was new and novel, but soon after behavior normalized (more on this below). We saw when people needed to use more than 140 characters, they Tweeted more easily and more often. But importantly, people Tweeted below 140 most of the time and the brevity of Twitter remained.
I’ve found my brain just skips over most tweets that look “long.”

Disney’s Vindictive LA Times Ban Prompts Critics and Media Boycotts
Adam Rosenberg, writing for Mashable:
Four major film critic organizations released a joint statement, directed at Disney, that sends one blunt message: Enough with this bullshit.
The statement in question is a response to Disney’s media blackout of the Los Angeles Times, a retaliatory response to what the Lucasfilm and Marvel owner has characterized as “biased and inaccurate” coverage of the company’s business dealings with the city of Anaheim, California. The Los Angeles Film Critics Association, New York Film Critics Circle, Boston Society of Film Critics, and National Society of Film Critics all joined together to send the message early Tuesday.
Dear Disney, here’s your crash course in the Streisand Effect.
Update: Amid backlash, Disney has ended the ban on the LA Times.
