@AmyNecole No smaller. Still 140 characters, as it always has been.

@stop The status update field included the 140-character countdown to keep you aware of how much space you had left. Max length of 140, because status updates were originally delivered through SMS, which had a limit of 160 characters, minus room for the 15-char username plus spaces.

Dated. “An update is limited by 140 characters and can be posted through three methods: web form, text message, or instant message.”

With Lists, note that #followfriday recommendations are no longer limited to 140 characters.
