Twitter Logo Changes to 'X'... Musk Says "New Farewell... 'X' to be Unveiled Tomorrow"
Elon Musk announced plans to change the Twitter logo on the 23rd (local time).
On that day, Musk wrote on Twitter, "We will soon say goodbye to the Twitter brand, and gradually to all the birds (bird emblem)."
The current Twitter logo is a blue bird, and the word 'Twitter' itself means the chirping of birds.
Musk added, "If a sufficiently great X logo is posted tonight, it will be unveiled worldwide tomorrow," posting an image of a blinking letter X.
Earlier, Musk established a new company called 'X Corp' and merged the Twitter corporation into this company. This reflected Musk's vision of turning Twitter into a 'super app' offering a wide range of functions such as messaging, product payments, and remote vehicle hailing.
Meanwhile, Twitter recently faced issues regarding the payment of large severance packages due to mass layoffs.
