Remember Twitter Notes<\/ins><\/a>? It was supposed to be the feature that let Twitter users write whatever they want, blowing past the typical Twitter character limit. At the time, that limit was only 280 characters. After several updates this year, Twitter Blue subscribers can tweet up to 25,000 characters<\/ins><\/a>. Now, CEO Elon Musk has seemingly confirmed that the company is still working on the Notes feature, but is rebranding it to Twitter Articles.<\/p>\n

In a reply<\/ins><\/a> to a tweet noting the name change, Musk confirms that Articles will be the place to post \u201clong, complex articles with mixed media.\u201d He goes on to say that \u201cYou could publish a book if you want.\u201d<\/p>\n

This will allow users to post very long, complex articles with mixed media. You could publish a book if you want.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 18, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

Officially announced last year, Notes was pitched as \u201ca way to write longer on Twitter,\u201d and was initially limited to select users in Canada, Ghana, the United Kingdom and the United States. Notably, this was announced before the Elon Musk takeover<\/ins><\/a> later that year, but after he announced his intention to buy the company. This is the first time Twitter has acknowledged the feature since then.<\/p>\n

As for what this feature will look like, think blog posts but on Twitter. Articles, which will be separate from the main timeline, is an area where users can post long-form content without the typical limitations of a tweet. That means you\u2019ll be able to embed photos, videos and other tweets within an Article. Users can share Articles in tweets, and published Articles will show up in your Twitter profile.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear at this time when or if Articles will be available to the public. The feature is still in the experimental stage it has been in since last year, and is only available to a select number of users.<\/p>\n
