Tweet Cut

This tool is a neat tool, which simply looks for some common words in your long tweet that can be abbreviated to a smaller word. Like “to” – 2, “members” – membrs, “dedicated” – dedic8d etc. Though the technique is pretty decent, but it is effective only if your text contains the words to abbreviate in their glossary. Else it simply doesn’t work.

Maxi Tweet

This is not necessarily a good way to tweet a longer tweet, but the reason I have enlisted these here is the concept of compressing tweets employed here.

Though if you use too much compression the tweet will simply look awful like the one shown below.
