原標題:推特標誌被改為X

Twitter owner Elon Musk announced Sunday that the app's world-renowned bird logo would be switched to an "X" later in the day.

推特所有者埃隆·馬斯克周日宣布,當天晚些時候,推特舉世聞名的「藍鳥」標誌將被換成「X」。

Musk had said the change would happen Monday, but he tweeted hours later that the "Interim X logo goes live later today."

馬斯克曾表示,這一變化將於周一落實,但幾個小時後,他在推特上表示,「臨時推出的『X』標誌將於今天晚些時候上線。」

Early Sunday, Musk posted a short video of a flickering "X." Later in a Twitter Spaces audio chat, he replied "Yes" when he was asked whether the logo will change.

周日早些時候,馬斯克發布了一段「X」閃爍的短視頻。後來,在推特空間的音頻聊天中, 被問及標誌是否會改變時,他回答說:「會」。

"Yeah we're cutting the Twitter logo off the building with blow torches," he told an unknown speaker.

他告訴一位匿名發言人:「是的,我們要用噴燈把推特的標誌從大樓上取下來。」

By Sunday afternoon the web address x.com, a domain returned to Musk in 2017 after it was relinquished under the merger that became PayPal, redirected to Twitter.

截至周日下午,x.com這個域名又回到了馬斯克手中,此前該域名被合併成了PayPal。目前,已重新回歸到推特。

The shift from bird imagery to that of a capital letter will be the latest big change since he bought Twitter for $44 billion last year.

從「藍鳥」形象到大寫字母「X」的轉變,將是自去年他以440億美元收購推特後的最新重大變化。

Musk tweeted that the idea of changing the logo to "X" is "To embody the imperfections in us all that make us unique."

馬斯克在推特上寫道,把標誌改成「X」是「為了體現我們身上獨一無二的缺陷。」

"And soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds," Musk wrote.

馬斯克寫道:「很快,我們將告別推特品牌,並逐漸告別所有的藍鳥標誌。」

On Sunday, Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino said the branding change will introduce a major pivot for the microblogging platform, which she said will become a marketplace for "goods, services, and opportunities" powered by artificial intelligence.

周日,推特執行長琳達·亞卡里諾表示,這一品牌變化將為微博平台帶來重大改變。她說,將微博打造成一個由人工智慧提供動力的「商品、服務和機會」的市場。

"It's an exceptionally rare thing — in life or in business — that you get a second chance to make another big impression," the chief tweeted. "Twitter made one massive impression and changed the way we communicate. Now, X will go further, transforming the global town square."

這位執行長在推特上寫道:「無論是在生活中還是在商業中,你都能有第二次機會給人留下深刻印象,這是一件極其罕見的事情。」 「推特給人留下了深刻的印象,改變了我們的交流方式。現在,『X』標誌將走得更遠,改變全球城市廣場。」
