There is no better place to be for news and updates. Twitter takes it all. However, private messaging only been applicable to non-famous people limits conversations and oportunities. If one has to write to famous person, can only put it on public through comments. As much as they have people to look at the comments for them, certainly can have people to look at the private messages. It could open up opportunities for business ideas, partnerships and changing something some people may not want to put in public. Will be great to hear your thoughts. Thanks
I love Twitter...but!

Sometimes we get our account suspended over a post that we didn’t know we should not be sharing, like a video clip from a song or a movie. Instead of getting our accounts suspended, can there be a way for us to explain why we posted it? It could be because we are just fans and because we are trying to steal another person’s work. But it goes straight into suspending our accounts.Apart from that, I love this App, and it’s amazing. Also can you please give us the edit button, pretty please.
More the. 5000 people make possible
