When Twitter rebranded its old fat whale of a bird logo into the svelte upward jumping bird logo it is now, it went through a lot of early concepts to get the angle of the bird jusssst right. One of my favorite concepting sketches? The middle finger. Twitter should have totally used that bird as its real logo!

Twitter introduced a new, updated bird logo today and it's ever so slightly different from its previous bird logo. The color is a shade darker, the beak is a bit higher and it looks more like a soaring dolphin than a buoyed whale.
