How to Put Longer Posts Onto Facebook
When you post a status update on Facebook, the site limits your post to 420 characters; this includes every letter, space and punctuation mark included in your status. If you want to say more than you can fit into a status update, you can post a note instead; notes aren't limited to a certain number of characters. Notes are displayed on your wall and on the news feed with the title and an excerpt; friends can click on the note to view the full text.
