I think there are also 256 characters in a 8-bit ASCII. WordPress does truncate the URL, so that doesn’t appear to play a role in how long the title itself can be.

Thanks to our friends at Google, I just did a search... and apparently the maximum URL length is 2,083 characters in Internet Explorer. But I am sure something else must be 256... lol.
