Noam Scheiber (@noamscheiber) December 07, 2012It’s official. The Mayans were right. Life as we know it is about to end. Twitter is shortening your tweets by 2 characters if you hyperlink. All of those little “t.co” links they use to shorten URLs? They’re getting longer. With the links going from 20 characters to 22, you’ll now have only 118 characters to offer pithy commentary.
Let the gnashing of teeth commence!
