From twitter.com to x.com

The platform is transitioning from twitter.com to x.com, signaling a significant shift in its identity and vision.
Enhanced Bookmarks
Twitter’s bookmarking functionality gets an upgrade with the introduction of bookmark search.
Users will now have an easier time finding and organizing their saved content.

Earn While You Tweet

This innovative approach could transform the dynamics of the platform and create new opportunities for content creators.
‘Followers’ May Become ‘Viewers’

Nonetheless, it’s sure to spark curiosity and perhaps a chuckle.
Ads Sharing in Over 100 Countries
Twitter’s ads sharing feature is expanding to over 100 countries, allowing users to monetize their content more broadly.
However, one notable absence from the list is Brazil, leaving over 16 million Twitter users in the Amazon country curious about the exclusion.
On the other hand, Nigeria will be included, with five million users set to benefit from this new feature.
Musk’s Brainwaves and Twitter’s Future
Elon Musk’s approach to innovation is both fascinating and unpredictable.
He has previously expressed his frustration with traditional communication channels and the need for a more direct interface between ideas and execution.
With Musk’s creative mind at the helm, Twitter’s evolution may see a seamless integration of the terrestrial and celestial spheres.
