[Hidden-tech] Twitter-software question

[Tom Gajda]

Hi Jeff,

In MS Word, you could create a single column that is 140 characters wide and
paste your text into the column. Each line would represent no more than 140
characters.

You could then cut each line at a logical point (the end of a sentence I
assume) and paste it into your tweet.

That would at least save you from counting thousands of characters.

If I think of a better idea, I will let you know.

Regards,

Tom

I work with a book publisher on certain book marketing/PR projects. We're
considering taking a chapter of a new book and chopping it up and tweeting
the entire chapter - piece by piece.

However, I don't really want to manually have to go through a 8-10 page
document and cut it up 140 characters at a time.

Do you know of any software that I could cut and paste the text and have it
automatically divide it up into 140 character chunks? Is there some hidden
feature within Microsoft Word that would do something like that?


Jeff
