Microblogging with Twitter

Microblogging with Twitter has its limitations. You can do only so much with a single
tweet. You have only 140 characters to describe what you are doing. Anytime you want
to share a long URL, you may run over the 140-character limit.
To create the most efficient tweets, make them even shorter than the 140-character
limit. This way, anyone wishing to retweet your tweets can do so more easily. This is
your way of ensuring that your tweets can propagate to their fullest potential.
To solve this character limitation problem, you can use URL shortening services. In
addition to Bit.ly and TinyURL, you can also use BudURL.
