made the blue bird app unique<\/a>, now Elon Musk has announced an even bigger change: <strong>it&#8217;s time to bid farewell to the biggest hallmark of the social network, its logo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a tweet early yesterday morning, Elon Musk said, &#8220;We will soon say goodbye to the Twitter brand and gradually to all the birds.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He later added, &#8220;If an X logo good enough is published tonight,&#8221; &#8220;it will go live worldwide tomorrow.&#8221; That means today, Monday the 24th, in the morning in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;X&#8221; is a term that Elon Musk has mentioned on more than one occasion as an &#8220;app for everything&#8221; that could combine social media, instant messaging, and payment services, similar to the popular Chinese app WeChat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Musk has stated that buying Twitter is &#8220;an accelerator to create X,&#8221; and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/end-era-twitter-inc-now-is-x-corp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the corporate entity he created to purchase and control Twitter is called X Holdings<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CEO of Twitter spoke in a live audio broadcast on Twitter early Sunday to announce the change in the Twitter logo. &#8220;It should have been done a long time ago,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry it took so long.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div

Elon Musk said in an email to Twitter employees that &#8220;we are indeed changing to X&#8221; and that it was happening &#8220;today.&#8221; &#8220;This is my final message from a Twitter email,&#8221; he wrote, bidding farewell with a waving emoji.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The billionaire has few barriers to make this major change, but he <strong>could still encounter resistance from banks that have lent him billions of dollars and private investors<\/strong> he brought into the operation, as they might fear he would dispose of one of Twitter&#8217;s most visible assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"
