New Delhi: Billionaire & Tesla founder Elon Musk sprang a surprise on the microblogging website by introducing a LIVE feature on the Twitter turned X.
Musk, the owner of Twitter, now named ‘X’ made the feature LIVE by introducing himself through a video braodcast on the microblogging platform.
While Musk went LIVE with the video feature on X, he was joined & followed by thousands of fans & followers.
While Musk asked, “Is this working?” they shared their first experiences while joining the LIVE feature with ‘X’ owner.
The X owner was also seen curling a dumbbell in the video, hinting that it could be a message for the rival platform Facebook.
After sometime, Musk posted, “live video now works reasonably well.”

After testing the feature, Musk also tweeted, “live videos now works reasonably well. Just tap the button that looks like a camera when you post”.
