Twishort - Advanced Twitter Features

Sometimes it happens that no matter how hard you try, it’s impossible to contain the thought in 140 characters. Sometimes it happens that you want to talk about something, but you have to throw out the details in order to invest in the restriction, and after that it seems that it was better not to tell. Sometimes it happens that you want to quote great words, but you have to cut them, and they no longer sound. A lot of things happen - and it was for such cases that we created Twishort - a service that allows you to expand the possibilities of posting on Twitter, and the basis of the project is the ability to write tweets longer than 140 characters.

In order to start using Twitter, you do not need to register - just have an account on Twitter. All you need to do is click on the login button and allow access to our service.

By default, the text sent to Twitter is truncated to the allowed number of characters and the link to the full text is on Twitter. I would like to note that if your main text is less than 140 characters, then the link to it will not be added. In addition, you have the opportunity to independently edit the text that goes to Twitter.

We also provided a set of characters that are often used, but not accessible from the keyboard (in any case, not easily accessible) - for example, dashes, copyright signs, quotation marks, and many others. Now it’s very easy to use. In addition, for example, an ellipsis saves two characters :)

Having implemented this rather simple functionality, we thought about why not make a tape of our long tweets. And they did. And besides, the tape is provided for each user, and it is convenient.

You can edit your tweets (for obvious reasons, only the full text is edited) and delete (the post on Twitter is also deleted). You can reply to other people's tweets - just like on Twitter.

Well, and perhaps the most important thing is the tweet page with the full text. To save characters, we tried to make the link to it as short as possible: it looks like http://twishort.com/aaaaa . At this address, anyone can read your full text.

PS Honestly, at first we wanted to launch the service next year. But then they thought, and decided that, probably, many people would want to share their New Year's impressions via Twitter - and for good impressions, 140 characters is not enough. Therefore, we are launching the project now and wish everyone a happy New Year! :)
