Elon Musk replaces Twitter logo with X
Elon Musk has introduced a new logo for Twitter, which will replace the blue bird icon. Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino posted on Twitter, “X is here! “Let’s do this,” portrayed as a white ‘X’ on a black background.
According to Reuters, the logo was also projected on the company’s offices in San Francisco.
The new design is the latest makeover since Musk paid $44 billion for the social networking company last year.
In a series of tweets on Sunday, Twitter’s billionaire said he hoped to implement the move globally as soon as Monday.
Musk tweeted, “And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds”.
Both Yaccarino’s and Musk’s Twitter handles featured the X logo, although the Twitter blue bird is still visible across the platform.
“#GoodbyeTwitter” was trending on the platform with reference to the old logo as several users criticised the new one.
