Dont know if many of you use twitter? If not, you are restricted to 140 characters per post, which includes the address of the person(s), a bit like an email address such as @stephenfry

I love Twitter, becuase it can be challenging to say what you want to say with such a few characters.

So things like for, to, and, you would be 4, 2, &, u

Sometimes if I am short on characters, I will take out fullstops, commas etc.
