Edit your tweets, finally.

Covfefe - Chrome Extension for Editing Tweets

"Covfefe" is a revolutionary extension for Google Chrome that lets users edit their old tweets, a feature that Twitter does not natively offer. Besides editing, Covfefe also provides a 15-second delay on every tweet so each post can be reviewed and undone, if need be, before it's visible to others. However, replacing an old tweet may lead to the loss of favorites and retweets. The usage starts by simply connecting your Twitter account with the Covfefe extension.
