July 24, 2023Twitter changes logo
On July 23, 2023, Elon Musk announced that he would be changing the company's logo from the iconic blue bird to an X. The new logo is a simple, black X on a white background. Musk said that the change was necessary to "reflect the company's new direction."

Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino said, "It's an exceptionally rare thing – in life or in business – that you get a second chance to make another big impression. Twitter made one massive impression and changed the way we communicate. Now, X will go further, transforming the global town square."
"For years, fans and critics alike have pushed Twitter to dream bigger, to innovate faster, and to fulfill our great potential. X will do that and more. We've already started to see X take shape over the past 8 months through our rapid feature launches, but we're just getting started," she added.
In another tweet, Yaccarino said, "There's absolutely no limit to this transformation. X will be the platform that can deliver, well….everything. Elon Musk and I are looking forward to working with our teams and every single one of our partners to bring X to the world."
