This Chrome extension lets you add fancy formatting to your tweets

Ever wanted to add bold text to your tweets or really underline a point?

Now you can. Bedazzle is a Chrome extension that adds the rich text editing features that Twitter currently lacks. Well, sort of…

Sometimes you need to be 𝐛𝐨𝐥𝐝 in your tweets and really u͟͟͟n͟͟͟d͟͟͟e͟͟͟r͟͟͟l͟͟͟i͟͟͟n͟͟͟e͟͟͟ your ⓟⓞⓘⓝⓣⓢ.

What the add-on actually does is add a new box to the compose window on Twitter.com. When you select a word and choose a formatting option, it replaces the characters with their unicode equivalents.

It’s a little janky but fun nonetheless, and from my testing, your fancy tweets will show up just fine in most Twitter clients. There are other tools that let you add formatting, but this one does it right in your browser.
