by Leave a Comment

The only limit to our creativity is our imagination. Branded Fruit is a true example of that.

Branded Fruit is a new kinda of creative service that offers to print logos, text, and graphics on fruits! Look at the featured image in which logos of brands like Twitter, Heroku, Mailchimp, SoundCloud and Stripe are printed on different fruits. Well, it’s an innovative & fun way for branding! Isn’t it?

Before Branded Fruit, who could have thought of printing on fruits? While the logos printed on fruits are not edible, these are designed by Branded Fruit in a way that doesn’t affect the taste and usability of the fruit either.

Currently, you can get your brand printed on a variety of fruits like bananas, mangoes, pineapples, persimmons, limes, beets, potatoes, eggplants, avocados (most popular for now!) and much more! Options are plenty great.

Big brands are using Branded Fruit service for promotional giveaways, events & providing healthy fruits to their stakeholders at the same time!

Microsoft (Bill Gates) & Apple (Steve Jobs) Are Friends! Here Is Proof.

by Leave a Comment

Yes, that’s right! Though in media, the both companies (Apple & Microsoft) & these two tech legends (Steve Jobs & Bill Gates) are projected as rivals! The truth is both of them were good friends & the tech giants are supportive to each other. In 1997, Apple was facing really bad time. At that time the Apple’s valuation fell to $2.17 billion while the Microsoft was valued at whopping of $149.68 billion! Apple badly needed cash for survival. Bill Gates came to the rescue of Steve Jobs’ Apple & invested $150 million to protect Apple from bankruptcy. The deal helped Microsoft too in some ways but that’s not the point here. It’s not wrong to say that Microsoft literally saved Apple! That’s really inspiration for healthy competition & friendship!

The Story Behind ‘Google’ Name You Need To Know!

by Leave a Comment

Have you heard of the term “Googol“? Probably no, right? But you must have heard of “Google“! Well, “Googol” denotes the number 1 followed by 100 zeros i.e. 10100). It will be like 10000000….. (count up to 100 zeros! Also, have a look at this post image). That’s a large number! Well, Larry Page & Surgey Brin launched Google in 1998 with an intention to provide large number of information to people like you (that you call search results) through Google Search. Before that launch, they needed a name that can share their grand vision. They selected “Googol” (since it reflects a large number – 10100) only to found that it was already registered. The Smart duo tweaked the name to “Google” and registered Google.com on September 15, 1997. The name reflect their mission to organize the limitless information through Google!
