Tweet With 280 Characters Right Now

Twitter user Prof9 has discovered a workaround to get longer tweets a little early. Well, here how to tweet with 280 characters instead of 140:

  • Download Tampermonkey for your browser of choice (Chrome Webstore link)
  • Visit this this Github repository, click the raw button to install the script, save it.
  • Make sure the script is enabled in Tampermonkey and visit Twitter.com to tweet
  • That’s it!

It’s pretty nimble, isn’t it? Well, it’s a simple workaround, which will work automatically on Twitter.com every time you use the web client to tweet. Tampermonkey is a widely used as user script manager and the javascript is a harmless workaround that simply bypasses the tweet button limit.

Not to forget, if you don’t want to install Tampermonkey then you will have to wait you get randomly selected for the test or until Twitter push out this feature for everyone in the coming weeks or months.
