Elon Musk has been calling his Twitter acquisition X Corp mainly since he purchased it, and that’s its official authorized entity identify already, however now it may very well be the customer-facing model for the chicken app, too. Or soon-to-be-former-bird-app, truly.
Musk tweeted late Saturday night time that he’d exchange the Twitter chicken emblem with an ‘X’ emblem as quickly as Sunday or Monday “worldwide,” supplied he acquired a handsome sufficient one submitted in time. Musk then tweeted on Sunday a brief teaser animation of an X graphic on a black background that presumably means he acquired his want.
The Twitter blue chicken emblem and model identify should not lengthy for this world, in accordance with a separate submit by Musk on his social community. Twitter’s ‘CEO’ Linda Yaccarino to this point hasn’t chimed in on the change on her personal account, regardless of ostensibly main the corporate Musk overpaid for late final yr. Twitter couldn’t be reached for remark as a result of like a toddler Elon has changed the media contact electronic mail with a bot that auto responds on a irritating and infinite loop.
Additionally like a toddler, Musk appears intent on naming the whole lot ‘X’ simply because he likes it and is fixated on it (there’s an x in fixated hope you preferred that one Elon); he’s named his new AI firm ‘x.AI’ and actually is not going to shut up about how badly he needed X to be the identify for PayPal when his authentic firm with that identify merged with one other to make the web funds large.
As of this writing, Twitter remains to be Twitter and the blue chicken nonetheless flies, however that would change at any second, as with the whole lot this fickle billionaire touches nowadays.
