SAN FRANCISCO: Twitter’s blue bird logo has now been replaced by the new ‘X’ logo on the web.
Twitter-owner Elon Musk had started hinting at this change on Sunday with a series of tweets, starting with one that said, “soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds”.
Now ‘X’ logo has replaced the Twitter blue bird on the platform’s web version. Musk also changed the company’s official account’s name to ‘X’ on the platform along with its picture. He also shared a picture of Twitter’s headquarters with the new logo projected on it, and said: “Our headquarters tonight.”
Twitter-owner on Sunday said that “X.com” now directs to “twitter.com”.
“Not sure what subtle clues gave it way, but I like the letter X.” When a user asked, “Instead of retweet, what’s the new name? ReX’d?”, Musk replied: “That whole concept should be rethought.”
He had also kicked off a poll asking users if he should change the default platform colour to black.
When technology influencer Marques Brownlee tweeted, “I’m still gonna call it Twitter”, Musk replied: “Not for long.” (IANS)
