Musk had asked fans for logo ideas and chose one, which he described as minimalist(極簡(jiǎn)主義) Art Deco(裝飾藝術(shù)).?He replaced his own Twitter profile image with a white X on a black background and posted a picture of the design projected on Twitter's San Francisco headquarters(總部).

然而,專家預(yù)測(cè)這個(gè)新的名字將會(huì)使很多原本就因?yàn)轳R斯克的其他改變而不開(kāi)心的推特用戶變得困惑,比如限制推特用戶每日閱讀的數(shù)量。

因?yàn)轳R斯克接管這個(gè)公司,推特的收益已經(jīng)極速地下滑了,并且由于削減開(kāi)支和避免破產(chǎn),已經(jīng)裁掉了推特四分之三的員工了。
