You probably use it every single day. To pair your phone, speaker, laptop, headphones. Bluetooth is such a big part of our lives now. But where did the name come from?
It all goes back to the 10th century when King Harald “Bluetooth” Gormsson was well known for uniting different parts of Denmark. Hence the reason it’s use to talk about “uniting” devices together nowadays with technology. He got the nickname “Bluetooth” came about because he had a dead tooth which was a blue/grey color.
Crazy!
