twitter message length
The SMS messages generated by twitter can be over the 140 character length and thus deliver over two SMS messages. I have definitely seen this before twitter turned off SMS forwarding. (This may only occur if the originator defines an activity. I am not sure what happens if one is in a very long place name.)
I’m not really sad, but was underwhelmed.

Inappropriate?Hi Dave,
as you know, every message sent to Twitter is truncated at 140 chars, so there are only two ways how this can happen:
1) twitter appends other information (longer than 20 chars) to our 140 char message in which case we can do nothing about it or
2) some characters used in the title of the activity are non-standard (like ₧₤¥➢➦➛⇐∀⊥⊄∈∧⊕⊄≅ĹĽĶĘĠÑÉċŽćťŝň and similar) and might be encoded inside the sms using more than one character. this could lead to one sms being encoded in 160 characters but containing only, say, 140 letters. still, this is very improbable.
Do you recall on which activity tweet you received more than one sms?
I’m doubtful

Inappropriate?So if you add a comment , or something for the what I am doing field, you will generate a longer sms message. I received this from a colleague and don't know how he set the message.
