>Your response? Remove the last filter forcing careful selection of words. This makes Twitter boring without making room for real thought.
Ehhh, one of the reasons Twitter is useless for actual conversation is that you can't express a thought. You only have just enough room to say something that you can't flesh out such that you can enrage other people. Twitter is built on anger and misunderstanding, interpreting 140 chars least charitably as possible.
Then someone tries to organize their thoughts into a tweet storm, but there's no real way to respond to it without more small bite-sized misunderstood/misunderstanding comments.
Increasing the limit is a good thing in this regard.
That the 140 char limit forced people to "choose the best words" is laughable.
