Bug Description

Looks like the Social Lens (Gwibber) is currently using the Twitter logo as icon. Besides it's hard to believe we can do so, it is also misleading. Gwibber is not just Twitter, it can connect to many other back end.

The design of a new icon is already in progress.

Conditional +1 from the Docs Team

Since this does not look like it will land in the next hour by the already extended docs string freeze, I can only approve this if it doesn't change our docs which say the lens is represented by a bird.

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/ubuntu-docs/quantal/view/head:/ubuntu-help/C/unity-dash-gwibber.page

If you want to use something besides a bird, that will need to wait until 13.04.

Can we get the new icon in -proposed tomorrow please so that I can finalize screenshots?

Thanks

Something similar to the old gwibber lens icon would work too.

@jeremy, if you mean based on this shape: http://design.ubuntu.com/wp-content/uploads/pictogram-tweet-orange-hex.svg
that would be good for 12.10.
