Twitter is currently testing a feature that allows users to post images, videos, GIFs, and links in one tweet.
This new multimedia format will allow numerous forms of media per tweet, and will help move the platform “beyond 280 characters”, according to a company statement.
An event as unique as our city!

“We’re testing a new feature with select accounts for a limited time that will allow people to mix up to four media assets into a single tweet, regardless of format,” the company confirmed in a statement.
“We’re seeing people have more visual conversations on Twitter and are using images, GIFS and videos to make these conversations more exciting.
“With this test we’re hoping to learn how people combine these different media formats to express themselves more creatively on Twitter beyond 280 characters.”
These tweets can’t be posted or viewed on a desktop at the moment, only from the Twitter mobile app.
