NEW YORK — Elon Musk said Sunday that he plans to change the logo of Twitter to an “X” from the bird, marking what would be the latest big change since he bought the social media platform for $44 billion last year.
In a series of posts on his Twitter account starting just after 12 a.m. ET, Twitter’s owner said that he’s looking to make the change worldwide as soon as Monday.
“And soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” Musk wrote on his account.
Elon Musk tweeted on his official account that Twitter would be changing its logo to an “X” and that all the birds will be disappearing from the platform. https://t.co/T3bQad9bfLpic.twitter.com/8z67oqmUaS
