Trying to rebrand an indelible cultural phrase with an alternative that's four letters less yet one syllable more is just...well, it's just so Elon.

Usually you rebrand when your company is a disaster.
To be fair that's kinda what twitter is now.

I wondered why Musk would be doing this and the more I think about it the more I think it's probably as simple as Musk liked how buying Twitter got so many people talking about him, but that always fades. So there's no master plan here. This is just the latest thing he's doing to get his name all over the news and get that dopamine hit.

So if Musk is now abandoning the name Twitter, its imagery, associated terminology, and cultural influence, does that mean it's now wide open for somebody else to claim it for a new social media site and benefit from the built-in brand recognition?

Doubt it. He'll still retain the rights to them for as long as he keeps paying for them.

Whether or not you care about Twitter or Musk, this is the stupidest rebrand in the history of brands.

It's like if Band-Aids became Guavas and that Alphabet company wanted you to squirrel the web for movie listings in your area.

"Tweet" in reference to Twitter is literally in dictionaries. It's one of the most iconic brands in the fucking world.

I was saying that yesterday. Its impossible to will your brand into becoming part of the English language. It just organically happens, and its an absolute fucking gift if it does. You cannot buy that kind of brand recognition.

And this asshole wants to throw it away.

Seriously, like a major part of googles strength is that googling is the default term for searching for anything online. Every other search engine has an uphill because when people talk about searching for anything they mention the Google brand.

This motherfucker had the social media equivalent to googling and he's throwing it away and replacing it with a literal filler letter. It makes no sense.

I think so.
It's pretty well known globally, it's instantly recognizable as "twitter", etc etc.
But maybe a different word/phrase would work better, like "brand recognition"?
