The big news of the week was Elon Musk getting his old domain back. Elliot Silver detailed the acquisition of X.com. Andrew Rosener commented that Media Options helped with the transaction.
Today Elon Musk put out a tweet about x.com and that single tweet has close to 2,000 replies, 4,747 Retweets and 21,895 Likes
Excited to announce the launch of https://t.co/J6TuRWIQAA! It’s a little verbose right now, but that will be fixed tomorrow.

The tweet has already brought about speculation and articles written in the likes of Fortune, Gizmodo and Mashable to name a few.
Speculation is running rampant on what the billionaire will do with X.com.
Gizmodo noted “Musk has promised that x.com will be “fixed” tomorrow, which either means that he’s going to give us a clue for what he plans to do with the website, or he’s going to build the website one letter at a time. No one really knows.”
How long before XTheBand.com loses its #1 spot in Google SERPs for “X”? They probably won’t mind being #2, in any event, since the overall search traffic will be higher anyway.
XCOM.com is currently #2 in SERPs for “X.com”. Bet they’ll see a little spike.
I wouldn’t be surprisef if X.com became an umbrella for all his businesses.

Elon was on CSPAN yesterday and spoke to an assembly of U.S. governors about his various businesses and the future of technology. Sounded red alert on risks of AI.
