Speaking of logos, this one seems more appropriate:

Musk bought the brand, platform, and, most importantly, the user base. Starting a new platform and convincing people to switch is an uphill battle. See: Google+

LOVE the new logo (because it’s so bad). It seemed wrong that an overrated hack like Musk could dance around under the comforting pale blue logo of another successful enterprise he had nothing to do with creating. Now it looks like the same tired old generic tech-boy crap this out-of-touch idiot still thinks people…

I don’t get it. Twitter was always bird-themed. Birds twitter. That’s why you tweet. Again, it was a theme. Now it doesn’t make sense. X sounds like a social platform for mutants. Does anyone feel like he’s intentionally trying to torpedo Twitter?  

At this point, I think the “Driving Crooner” is a better idea than X.com.

Holy hell, if i had 100 Billion (hell 100 Million), i would fuck off so hard. I would be a boon to my friends and family, and local businesses, but i would retire and live a comfortable but not ostentatious life.

From a UI standpoint: having a giant X as your logo is a bad idea. From a branding perspective: love or hate Twitter but everyone knew that little blue bird and they knew what a tweet was. As a creative choice: it looks real bad.

It’s unclear if the current logo will stick. He called on the community to help create an “art deco” design for the new logo.

I dunno, the blue check crowd still seems firmly up his ass. Saw a gif last night of someone ordering a flight to Mars on a credit card sized X tablet.

“Corporation X” is something out of a lazy 80's action movie.

Well just paid 44$ billion dollars for a thing. Lets take a look at the list of assets that give it value.

So... why not start your own social media website and call it X.com? Why spend $44 billion on an established company, with a world-renowned brand identity, and throw away the branding? It would be like a billionaire buying McDonalds, and immediately replacing the golden arches logo with something else.

musk is so fucking stupid. Even his diehard cultists have been oddly quiet of late given everything going on.

How will people inside the HQ be able to sleep if there’s giant spotlights shining in through the windows?

Good, it should have been rebranded day 1 when he started manipulating the app in his favor. This more menacing, dystopian-like logo suits the app much better now.

Wait, X is supposed the new name? I thought it was going to be a placeholder to build hype (I know...) until Musk could unveil the actual new logo.

Of all his unforced errors, this certainly feels like the dumbest.
