This also happens with the AMD64bit version of Ubuntu Lucid. My current gwibber version is 2.30.0.1
from system monitor:
Release: 10.04
Kernel: 2.6.32-22-generic
Gnome: 2.30.0
Mem:3.7GiB
Processor: AMD Turion(tm) 64X2 Mobile Technology TL-52

I only added a facebook broadcast account. Not a twitter one, and it still restricts my messages to 140 characters which is the limit for twitter messages.

The service is a novel idea when integrated into the OS via the gnome panel. It is awesome to have, just needs that little tweak to stop it from being useless... facebook can hold more than 140, and if gwibber holds me back i wont use it. To be useful, it needs to be true to the service capacities.
