This Slogging thread by Manas Goel, Valentine Enedah, Hephzibah Adejumo, Mónica Freitas, Sara Pinto and elizabeth modupe occurred in slogging's official #random channel, and has been edited for readability. Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 6:09 AM This is something interesting! :slogging-slack-blogging: 3 Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 6:12 AM Elon Musk claimed that acquiring Twitter will fasten the development of 'X, the everything app Musk dubbed the acquisition 'an accelerant' to creating a multipurpose app Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 6:13 AM What are your views on This also sounds familiar to China’s WeChat! "X, the everything app"? Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 6:14 AM Valentine Enedah Oct 5, 2022, 6:35 AM Manas Goel Someone needs to seize Elon's phone. 😂 1 Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 7:18 AM Valentine Enedah Though the idea of the everything app seems appealing to me! , what are your views on that? Hephzibah Adejumo Oct 5, 2022, 7:25 AM Manas Goel Elon Musk has too much time on his hands, but i don't doubt he could create an everything app 💚 1 Valentine Enedah Oct 5, 2022, 7:28 AM Manas Goel I totally resonate with . He has too many companies he is in control of even to add the school he started for his children are now have other people enrolling in it. It's a lot to build an everything's app. If the product managers of the company are genies then it's possible. 💚 1 Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 7:36 AM That's true , I also believe some of his claims and aspirations are irrational, but then irrationality can sometimes just be a bridge to greater inventions and discoveries! , Do you believe in Elon as a person who could bridge this path? Valentine Enedah Oct 5, 2022, 7:37 AM Manas Goel Regardless of his controversial life, Elon is a revolutionary. From electric cars to speedy internet, construction, brain work,AI. Elon is that guy! 🔥 1 Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 7:38 AM Indeed Valentine Enedah, a nimble-witted technical and management team is paramount for this! However, do you believe Elon's thought process and work ethic could enhance the productivity of such a team? Valentine Enedah Oct 5, 2022, 7:45 AM Manas Goel I actually came across an article on the internet that says Elon works up to 16 hours daily. I don't know about you but that work rate is something most people can't match. My only problem is that, working 16 hours a day and you are not as rich as Elon is disheartening 😔 I believe he has a good work ethic but sometimes it could be extreme. 🔥 1 Manas Goel Oct 5, 2022, 5:27 PM That's true Valentine Enedah, these are the work ethics I was talking about. 16 hours daily may sound like a fortune in making, but in reality, in my opinion, such practices will only deteriorate the overall productivity of employees if such a culture is imposed! 🔥 1 ❤ 1 Valentine Enedah Oct 5, 2022, 6:01 PM Manas Goel Wellsaid! Mónica Freitas Oct 6, 2022, 3:58 PM Manas Goel I don't know what the is but I love how pretentious this quote is. Musk does see himself as the instigator to everything new. X, the everything app 💚 1 Manas Goel Oct 6, 2022, 4:01 PM Might make you now?😂 Mónica Freitas A FAN Mónica Freitas Oct 6, 2022, 4:06 PM Manas Goel I don't see that happening. Unless he surprises me with something that can actually be accessible and life changing for everyone 💚 1 Manas Goel Oct 6, 2022, 4:11 PM Though I haven't had first-hand experience since I'm from India, according to what I've studied, isn't Starlink a promising initiative? Mónica Freitas It might fulfill the accessibility criteria? Sara Pinto Oct 6, 2022, 7:37 PM Manas Goel, I thought he didn't want to buy Twitter after all 😂 But what is X, the everything app? I only know WeChat for communication, so I don't really get the idea haha elizabeth modupe Oct 7, 2022, 3:51 AM This tweet is weird. His core fans will defend it :melting_face:If he wants to emulate WeChat, is it regulated by the Chinese Government? He has been saying he wants to create a platform free from such with his proclamation of free speech at all costs if I am not mistaken. Manas Goel Oct 7, 2022, 7:04 AM Sara Pinto Mood swings I guess😂 🙃 WeChat isn't only for communication, it has more than 1 billion monthly users, according to one estimate, and is a ubiquitous part of daily life in China. Users can hail a car or taxi, send money to friends and family or make payments at stores. In 2018, some Chinese cities began testing WeChat for an electronic identification system that would be tied to users’ accounts too! People basically WeChat in China! Musk , wants a similar kind of app , basically a , offering a suite of services for users such as messaging, social networking, peer-to-peer payments and e-commerce shopping. (though they cost heavily on my stock portfolio ). live on Swiss army knife of mobile apps Manas Goel Oct 7, 2022, 7:06 AM elizabeth modupe I agree with the government involvement angle. But emulating WeChat really might be a game changer in the states!
