Why name it bluetooth?

Why is it called Bluetooth?
Harald Bluetooth was king of Denmark in the late 900s. He managed to unite Denmark and part of Norway into a single kingdom then introduced Christianity into Denmark. He left a large monument, the Jelling rune stone, in memory of his parents. He was killed in 986 during a battle with his son, Svend Forkbeard. Choosing this name for the standard indicates how important companies from the Nordic region (nations including Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland) are to the communications industry, even if it says little about the way the technology works.

Or something like that.

If its grade 9 Technology then anything you find on wikipedia, if presented properly will easily get her the 'A' she want. (I would know I also an 'A' Candidate albeit in matric at the moment).

If it was for physical science then you would have to go deeper and more technical, but as stated before, technology is all about food and bridges!
