'Shall Bid Adieu To...' Elon Musk Says Twitter Brand, 'Bird' Logo To Change Soon

Twitter is all set to get a new logo and bid adieu to the birds, Elon Musk has announced.

In a major development, Elon Musk has announced that Twitter as a brand will soon be changed and along with that the bird logo will also be abandoned. He tweeted, "And soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds." He also shared a version of the new Twitter logo 'X' and said, "If a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we’ll make go live worldwide tomorrow. Musk has implemented a slew of changes after he took over the micro-blogging site, including a subscription model, and restricting tweet views among others.

Musk also posted a version of the new logo. He confirmed that the logo will change during a Twitter Spaces chat in which he was asked if the logo would be changed. He replied saying, 'Yes', adding that it should have been changed a long time back, an NDTV report stated.

In April this year, Musk changed the blue bird logo with the "doge" meme of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency. The users noticed that the blue bird logo on Twitter’s homepage had been replaced by the image of shiba inu image associated with the Dogecoin meme coin cryptocurrency. 

In May, Musk also announced that he would step down as the Chief Executive Officer of Twitter and passed the reins to Linda Yaccarino.

Elon Musk, who assumed the role of CEO following his acquisition of Twitter for a staggering $44 billion in October last year, expressed his confidence in Yaccarino's ability to transform Twitter into an "everything app." This ambitious vision suggested a comprehensive revamp of the platform to incorporate a wide array of features and functionalities.

Recently Musk also announced a cap on the number of tweets users can read per day on the micro-blogging platform. Initially, the limit was 6,000 posts for verified users and 600 for unverified users. However, Musk revised these limits to 10,000 and 1,000 tweets, respectively. According to Musk, the move was aimed at addressing the issue of widespread data scraping by numerous organisations. However, the move ignited a heated debate surrounding the openness of the platform.
