Will Tom Anderson Become Twitter CEO? Elon Musk’s Twitter Poll Fail Makes Myspace Tom Go Viral
Elon Musk is the founder, CEO, and CTO of SpaceX, co-founder of Tesla, and chairman of SolarCity. He is also the founder of Neuralink, a company working on brain-computer interface technology. Elon Musk announced that he will be buying Twitter in 2022. This was exciting news for many, and also disappointing for many others as Twitter is one of the most popular social media platforms in the world today. It was inevitable that the purchase would have many implications for the future of social media, as Musk has a history of making bold moves.
Recently Elon Musk made one those aforementioned bold moves by allowing the public to decide his fate as CEO of Twitter. The poll asked the question of whether he should step down from his position as head of the company, and he guaranteed he would honor the results. At the moment it appears the majority seems to be voting in the direction of him finding a new CEO replacement. Many people think the writing is on the wall that Myspace’s Tom Anderson will be the new Twitter CEO. It only makes sense considering his experience running a social media platform.
