Elon Musk, owner of Twitter Inc, has announced a significant transformation for the popular social media company. As part of this exciting change, Twitter’s iconic blue bird logo has been replaced by a striking X symbol.
Musk’s decision comes as Twitter faces challenges with the slow return of advertisers. Seeking a new direction for the platform, the billionaire entrepreneur turned to his millions of followers for their input.
In a tweet on Sunday, he engaged users by asking their opinion on changing the site’s color scheme from blue to black.

According to Yaccarino, Twitter has already revolutionized communication, and the introduction of the X logo will further propel its evolution, transforming it into a global town square.
This is not the first time Twitter experimented with logo changes; in April, the platform temporarily replaced its legacy blue bird logo with Dogecoin’s Shiba Inu dog, contributing to a surge in the cryptocurrency’s market value.
The rebranding move by Elon Musk and Twitter is poised to redefine the platform and boost its appeal to users and advertisers alike, ushering it into a new era of innovation and growth. As Twitter transforms into X Corp, the future of the social media giant looks more promising than ever.
