Update April 5th, 8:55AM ET:<\/strong><\/em> On Tuesday morning, <\/em>Twitter announced Elon Musk will join its board of directors<\/em><\/a>. Musk <\/em>said in a tweet<\/em><\/a> that he plans on working with Twitter\u2019s CEO and board \u201cto make significant improvements to Twitter in coming months!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Elon Musk has wasted no time making his Twitter feature priorities clear after becoming its biggest shareholder yesterday<\/a>. The Tesla CEO has polled his 80 million followers<\/a> about whether they\u2019d like to be able to edit their tweets after posting them. Twitter\u2019s new CEO Parag Agrawal subsequently quote-tweeted Musk\u2019s poll<\/a> to say that \u201cThe consequences of this poll will be important. Please vote carefully.\u201d The phrasing mirrors a similar tweet from Musk<\/a> about free speech on March 25th, days after he acquired almost 10 percent of the company.<\/p>\n

The so-called \u201cedit button\u201d has been one of the most commonly requested features of the social media platform. In an ideal world it would simply allow users to clean up typos after publishing their tweets, but critics claim the feature could be ripe for abuse, allowing users to substantially change the meaning of tweets after they\u2019ve been shared across the platform. Twitter\u2019s former CEO Jack Dorsey said that the company would \u201cprobably never<\/a>\u201d add an edit button in an interview in early 2020.<\/p>\n

Responding to his poll, Twitter user \u201cEveryday Astronaut<\/a>\u201d suggested that the edit button only be available for a short time after first tweeting, and that edited tweets contain a link showing the edit made. In response, Musk said, \u201cthat sounds reasonable<\/a>.\u201d Many other social media platforms already allow users to edit their posts, but as my colleague Casey Newton argued, none have seen this feature widely abused<\/a>. Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth said Facebook had \u201csolved<\/a>\u201d the edit button problem in response to Musk\u2019s poll.<\/p>\n

The poll comes days after Twitter\u2019s official account said \u201cwe are working on an edit button<\/a>,\u201d but it made the statement on April Fool\u2019s day (the most untrustworthy day of the year). However, this week Twitter product lead Michael Sayman quote tweeted<\/a> this apparent gag, and called it the company\u2019s \u201cofficial statement\u201d on the feature. <\/p>\n

Musk is technically a passive shareholder of Twitter. He disclosed his investment in a Schedule 13G filing, which is normally reserved for stakes that have not <\/em>been acquired \u201cwith any purpose, or with the effect, of changing or influencing the control of the issuer,\u201d according to Bloomberg\u2019s <\/em>Matt Levine<\/a>. But the Wall Street Journal<\/em> reports<\/a> that Musk\u2019s filing didn\u2019t include the standard certification saying he doesn\u2019t intend to influence the company, and that the Tesla CEO simply wrote \u201cNot Applicable\u201d instead.<\/p>\n

Musk\u2019s tweets do not instruct Twitter to add an edit button, but his poll (which as of this writing is 73.7 percent in favor with over 2 million votes tallied) sends a pretty strong signal to Twitter about whether one should be added. \u201cIf the people vote overwhelmingly for something, it is at least *a* data point!\u201d Musk wrote in a follow-up tweet<\/a>, before calling crypto bots the \u201csingle most annoying problem<\/a>\u201d on the platform. <\/p>\n

Whatever Musk\u2019s intentions, Twitter\u2019s CEO is clearly paying attention. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
