Facebook’s stealing features again, but not from Snapchat this time

in #facebook8 years ago

You probably didn’t notice it all, but Facebook took Twitter’s most iconic feature 一 kinda.

Familiar with Twitter’s 140 character limit? Well, Facebook now has a new feature that only allows users 130 characters in a post. Facebook might not have stolen Twitter’s concept, but the company definitely used it as inspiration in its new short and sweet posting format. It also would’ve been awkward if Facebook took the classic 140 number for themselves.

130 characters are enough to add 'Facebook' at the beginning of each short message and send it via SMS wich has a140 char limit.

Maybe that could be the reason...

Facebook are clearly running out of ideas, Steemit is the future!

Hahaha!!! Fakebook just blew the only advantage they had over Twitter... way to go Suckerberg!!!
