A log of fun stuff that is shared between friends. Hopefully some of it will be inspiring. This is not a place to find updates on my life.

Bluetooth?

The word Bluetooth is an anglicised version of Danish Blåtand, the epithet of the tenth-century king Harald I of Denmark and parts of Norway who united dissonant Danish tribes into a single kingdom. The implication is that Bluetooth does the same with communications protocols, uniting them into one universal standard.[2][3][4]

The Bluetooth logo is a bind rune merging the Younger Futhark runes H-rune.gif (Hagall) and Runic letter berkanan.svg(Bjarkan), Harald’s initials.
