Elon is changing the logo, the name, etc of Twitter to X.
What's the reason, OT?

July 23 (Reuters) - Elon Musk said on Sunday he was looking to change Twitter's logo, tweeting: "And soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds".

In a post on the site at 12:06 a.m. ET (0406 GMT), the social media platform's billionaire owner added: "If a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we'll make (it) go live worldwide tomorrow."

It’s provocative. It gets the people going!

I always thought Twatter was a better name since everyone goes on there to whine like little fricking twats.

Do get the stink of the previous Twitter management off of it.

I'm struggling to figure out the word that replaces the verb "tweet". Seems like a mistake this soon, I would have waited until after 2024 election.

Or maybe he just hates what that damn bird came to represent.

If I recall, he has some grand vision of what social media will be. It will be an AI/Twitter/FB type product. He calls it X.

He wants to eventually turn it into a All-In-One app that you can basically do everything on.

This is the first step.

Considering I can’t even type his kid’s name, you may be correct.

Elon's first business was called X.com

He always had a vision to make an all in one app called X. Buying twitter was the start of him building that app.

Zuck is making him panic. Can’t wait for these two to join forces.

Because the founder was more interested in nipple rings than making money. Time for the revamp
