I just want to change information, not delete

On the User Profile page it officially displays that now there is a 140-character limit.

Even twitter gives 160 characters for displaying one's profile, people. If you have to set a limit, then 220 characters is more than enough for most.

And yes, I'll go send a note to Support.

Only the first 140 characters show up, however, and when I go back to edit my profile page the paragraph is clipped in the About section as well. This happened in my previous theme (MistyLook) as well, and I just assumed there was a 140 character limit. However, this does not happen to the profile of another author on my blog, whose bio is much longer than 140 characters. What's the deal?

The bio information is stored in your wordpress account stuff and it does not show up anywhere that I am aware of. I don't know if perhaps wordpress planned on doing something with it and just never got around to it, or if they never planned on doing anything with it.

2. You cannot link to that information, but what you can do is either have an about page on your blog, or if the information is short, you can copy it and put it in a text widget in your sidebar.

Under Your Profile>>About Yourself>>Biographical Info I filled in...well, a bit of biographical info. But then it seems to just, disappear. That is, that text I entered for my bio doesn't seem to appear anywhere else on my blog (and it certainly isn't showing up here: http://wordpress.com/profile/username. I put in my my own username where "username" is in this address and got this message "No personal details to display for this user.").
1) Where is this bio I've written stored? Where does it show up and, after entering it several times, why can't I find it anywhere (outside of the box in which the actual text was entered)?
2) How can I get it to be linked from the front page of my blog? Can't I have a link that says "Profile" or somesuch?
Any help here is much, much appreciated.

it should be in that url. just replace username with your username.

When I look at my site however I cannot see my "biographical information" anywhere.

Where is it?

Thanks.
