The Quiz: The Twitter bird logo is named after which famous figure?
Twiggy
Larry Bird
Robin Williams
Florence Nightingale
In March 2006, Twitter founder Jack Dorsey posted “just setting up my twttr” on the new social network that would later be renamed Twitter. The site emerged from the ashes of a dying podcast company named Odeo, and launched as an SMS-based social network for sharing small status updates. It wasn’t until 2010 that the now-famous blue bird logo was introduced with the name “Larry,” after NBA legend Larry Bird. Today, millions of users look to Twitter as a source of breaking news and a direct line to influential people and companies the world over.
The correct answer to this quiz is Larry Bird.
