Do you know of any research on the double space after a period phenomenon?
This is something I have strong feelings about but don’t know why.
Fellow twitter friends, do you type a double space after periods? Why or why not...

Ah yes, Twitter is fundamentally anti- double space!
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Yes, it is ingrained in my typing also but character count driven by sms and twitter have often caused me to edit to delete the darned extra tap. I still use double space in most of my writing tho. Helps with contrast elements I thinkith

'contrast elements' as in a bigger visual cue that there's a new sentence starting?
