Harald Gormsson was king of Denmark from AD 958 to 986. Few people today recognize him by that name, but just about everyone in the 21st century knows his nickname, "Bluetooth". King Harald Bluetooth united the Danish tribes into a single kingdom, while the technology Bluetooth unites communication protocols.
