Twitter removing the character limit on Direct Messages

In a blog post (http://tinyurl.com/nbmog2s), Twitter says it will be effectively removing the character limit on Direct Messages between users sent through the social network. Previously DMs shared the same character limit as tweets which max out at 140 characters.

Tweets will continue to be the 140 characters they are today. However, direct messages have a character limit of 10,000 starting next month.
