    Twitter daily tweet limit
    I've basically reached my daily tweet limit and i'm confused as to what this means. Does this mean that limit will be lifted when it gets to 12 am or does it mean it will be lifted after 24 hours? I know this sounds really pathetic for asking but I am curious haha

    There's a daily limit? You must tweet about the most banal things to reach it.

    Let me give you a tip: 99% of what you consider 'interesting', isn't.

    If only you could see how irritating your posts are.

    If they're anything like yours, then God help me.

    I'm amazed you have anything to tweet about if you spend that much time updating stuff on there.
    I reached my 1000th tweet the other day, and i've been on twitter fr nearly a year, and amazed how i've managed that many.

    I didn't even know there was a limit. My cousin posts several hundred times a day (don't ask) so I didn't realise there was.

    I've just looked it up and there's a limit of 1000 tweets per 24 hours. I assume it will end 24 hours after the posting of the first of that 1000.

    There's a daily limit?! I thought I tweeted an obscene amount (I do), but I haven't reached a daily limit yet. This sounds like a challenge. Although I'm running out of things and people to quote...

    My guess is that OP got into several conversations on Twitter and so kept replying to posts then those people replied back etc. Also there were probably a few where they posted 3-4 maybe more replies because they couldn't fit everthing they wanted to into the character limit.

    I don't see how it could be possible from just normal updates by themselves.

    Out of curiousity, what were you doing? Single tweets about your day, replying to others, mass load of retweets? Did you really do 1000 tweets?

    There's a daily tweet limit? Probably no bad thing, the amount of people who clog up my twittter feed with pointless infomation

    The daily tweet limit is for people tweeting from PC's or computers. I've experienced the same thing.

    If you want to avoid the limit, it's best to tweet from a mobile device using a Twitter app.
