Twitter may be finally making a long-awaited update by changing the way it counts the 140 characters in tweets.

From 19 September, the social network will start to cut down what it counts as part of the word limit, reports The Verge. 

Attachments including pictures, GIFs and videos, as well as quoted tweets will no longer be counted as part of the 140 characters, enabling users to cram in more words.
