Twitter is a platform for tweeting small crisp contextual texts. But sometimes 140 characters are just not enough. A few apps like TwitLonger allows you to bypass 140 character limit by posting your message to another page and then tweeting the hyper-link to that page. The basic drawback to this approach is that users will have to leave the Twitter website/client to read your tweet.

Tall Tweet a web app, from Digital Inspiration, offers you an alternative approach to this problem. This app allows you to post your tweets either as text or images. If you choose the text option it slices your tweet into multiple smaller tweets of 140 characters or less, and publishes them all in reverse order i.e., top-to-down to allow easy reading. Alternatively, if you choose to publish your long tweet as an image, the entire text gets published in a single tweet. Image tweets are rendered using Roboto font which makes it readable even on mobile screens.

The best part about Tall Tweets is that the entire tweet can be read from with-in your twitter client. Further the hyper-links in your tweets will be automatically shortened using bit.ly. To get started with this app you may sign in with your twitter account here.
