Twitter to ditch bird logo, Musk says
Twitter is set for a rebrand, if its owner Elon Musk is to be believed.
“And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” Musk wrote in a tweet early Sunday.
The change might come as soon as Monday. In a follow-up tweet, Musk said: “If a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we’ll make [it] go live worldwide tomorrow.”
“It should have been done a long time ago,” Musk said in a Twitter Spaces audio chat, according to a Reuters report.
The X probably refers to Twitter’s business name X Corp. Musk also posted a tweet of a flickering X.
The rebrand is the latest change to Twitter by Musk since he acquired the company in October 2022 for $44 billion. Since taking over, Musk has made big changes to how Twitter works and has laid off large parts of the company’s staff.
