Twitter Is Dead: It's All 'X Corp' Now 💀
Court filings detail that Twitter, Inc. no longer exists, and that it's been subsumed by X Corp, Elon Musk's long talked about 'everything app'.
Twitter has been subsumed by billionaire Elon Musk in more ways than one. Now, however, the company itself is officially no longer its own entity, having been officially gobbled up by Musk’s X Corp. It stands as the blue bird app owner’s first official move to reinvent Twitter into a twisted version of its former self, though still keeping past baggage along for the ride.
Comment: This is incredibly ambitious but it's hard to see why Twitter is the base for an 'everything app'. Little will be left of original Twitter and it would have been much cheaper to have started from scratch 🤔 Whether it's by collapse, sale or merge into X Corp, Twitter won't be with us in a year's time.

Get your Headline right 📰
When your Profile is previewed on LinkedIn in search results, who's viewed your profile, for network suggestions and elsewhere 3 things are displayed:
1) Name 2) Profile photo/video 3) Headline
So it's worth spending some time to get your Headline right. Here are some tips:
🎯 Brevity is key. With a 220 character limit, ensure your headline is concise and on point.
🔍 Incorporate relevant keywords. Reflect on which keywords potential employers or clients will search for in your field. Including these will boost your profile visibility.
📌 Be precise. Avoid generic titles like "Company Director." Instead, highlight your specific skills and role.
✍️ Lead with a strong action verb. Rather than stating "I'm a content writer," try "Empowering businesses to reach goals with engaging, informative content writing."
