Twitter, the widely popular social media app, has recently undergone a name change to X. In response, Sesame Street, an iconic television show for children, decided to issue a light-hearted warning to the renamed platform. The playful exchange alluded to Sesame Street having a longstanding relationship with the letter X, thereby putting X (Twitter’s new moniker) on notice.
Sesame Street’s official account tweeted, “@Twitter, X marks the spot for buried treasure, the unknown, and now you! We’re here to make this transition a smooth one for everyone. Welcome, from your friends at Sesame Street #FindThe15th.” The tweet humorously signified that Sesame Street has been aware of the significance of the letter X long before Twitter adopted it as their new name.
This amusing interaction between Twitter and Sesame Street highlights the fun possible in the realm of social media when well-known organizations and platforms engage with one another.
