  4. technology. Reading about Viking history at the time, he was intrigued by a stone inscribed.
  5. with runes that praised the exploits of a 10fh-century Danish king called Harald Bluetooth
  6. The stone described how Bluetooth had brought the Danes together as one people and
  7. conquered Norway. "It occurred to me that [his name] would make à good code name for
  8. the program," Kardach wrote. Other names were considered, but the Viking ruler's moniker
  9. stuck Bluetooth technology set out to conquer and connect the modem world, just as King
  10. Bluetooth had connected and conquered swathes of Scandinavia more than a thousand
  11. years before.
  12. Harald Bluetooth's life spanned the 10h century. During his 30-year reign, he over ran

  24. from the ninth century to the time of the manuscript's composition, around 1143. The
  25. translation of Blåtant as Bluetooth is controversial. In Old Norse, the term blár can mean
  26. blue, but it also denotes a dart color, like blue-back. Tradition says that one of Harald's
