Ok so I know this isn't really travel related, but I thought this story was just too good too pass up. I recently learned how the tiny mobile device known as bluetooth got its name. So here is your fun fact of the day:
Supposedly, Blue tooth is named after the 10th century King of Denmark, Harold "Bluetooth" Gormson. Harold was known for being an avid blueberry lover, so much so that his teeth were permanently blue stained (hey Bluetooth, get it?). Harold was responsible for uniting Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Bluetooth work to unite all the w
orlds wireless devices under one single standard. While I am not sure if this story is true or not, it certainly would make for an interestering namesake; dont you think?
Look closely. Can you see the rune characters for the initials H.B. In the bluetooth logo?
