New Development!! Post videos and send group messages on Twitter

You can begin shooting and post 30-second video clips to Twitter from the iOS and Android apps. Moreso, direct messages are expanding to let you message groups of up to 20 people, creating a place for more private conversations on Twitter (and doing grave damage to the time-honored practice of subtweeting in the process.)

The changes, which will roll out over the next several days, both address significant competitive needs for Twitter. Letting users post videos helps to level the playing field with Facebook, which is dramatically increasing the amount of video in the News Feed.
