        If you cannot put your point forward clearly & succinctly then don't bother putting it forward in Twitter.

        No, don't do it. Keep it short and simple. It's good writing practice. @cbsnews

        500 characters sounds fair. People are just gonna make long messages over several tweets anyway. Oh, and where's the edit button?

        200 character tops and call it even. That is it. My tweets rarely require more than 100. + any links.
