Short Words for Twitter to Fit 140 Characters Limit

If you are struck with the 140 Characters limit and if you feel you could have completed your message if you were provided with 10-20 characters more space then its better to make the long words which are already posted in your Tweets shorter using the Instant Messaging acronyms which have been used since the last decade especially on IM’s like Yahoo Messenger and the Chat Rooms which are famous places where the First Message would begin with – Hi, ur name & asl plz?

Now these short words are not really bad when you are tweeting with your friends because its not good to use them when talking to someone professionally or else when having a discussion with a client, but cmon iam sure anything is allowed when we are with our close friends. So lets start checking out the most common short words which can be implemented in Twitter to save up the Tweet space and stuff more message in each.
