Most of the time Twitter won’t let you tweet 140 character because of Twitter’s bad URL shortening strategy. Twitter’s shortened URL eats more than 22 characters. That is over 15% of Twitter’s 140 character limit.<p>So if we try to tweet something with a link in it, we actually have 115-120 characters to tweet instead of 140. That is around 85% of what Twitter actually provides, rest 15% is occupied by Twitter’s short URL. When Twitter is going to accept it as real problem and fix it?
