Have you ever wondered why the service Bluetooth is called....Bluetooth? and why it has such a strange symbol?
You see: the name Bluetooth is actually the nickname for the 10th danish king Harold "bluetooth" Gormsson, he helped unite warring factions in parts of what are now Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Similarly, Bluetooth technology was created as an open standard to allow connectivity and collaboration between disparate products and industries.
"But why he got that nickname?"
The most common answer is that he had bad tooth, which can look dark or "blue", and the simbol of Bluetooh (the service) comes from a bind rune merging the Younger Futhark runes Runic letter ior.svg (Hagall) (ᚼ) and Runic letter berkanan.svg (Bjarkan) (ᛒ), Harald's initials.
