Twextra – Send Long Tweets With Images And Rich Text Capabilities

Posted by

We all know that Twitter has a 140-character limit but there are many services out there that let you send long tweets like the one I’ve shown you before which is Twitlonger. However, if you want something unique, you should try Twextra.

Twextra is a cool service that lets you post updates to your Twitter and LinkedIn accounts but unlike Twitlonger or other services out there, it lets you create huge messages of up to 100,000 characters! Not only that, it also allows you to add style to your message such as bold, italic, underline, colored-text, and many more! The readers can also translate your message with its language translation tool.

Other things that you can do with Twextra:

  • Add a table to your message
  • Add images/smiley/special characters
  • Track click statistics

How to use Twextra:

1. Go to Twextra and start typing your message/tweet.

2. When you’re done, you can choose if you want Twextra to post it automatically to your Twitter/LinkedIn account or do it manually. If you want to do it automatically, choose between LinkedIn or Twitter then click Post Message. You’ll be then asked to login to your account. If you want to do it manually, just click Post Message without choosing Twitter/LinkedIn.
