Sometimes I think reality fools me. The name of Facebook's boss is - as you may be know - Mark Zuckerberg. One of the competitors of Facebook is Diaspora and its boss's name is Maxwell Salzberg. The funny part is not just that their names both end in "...berg", but the meanings of their names: "Zucker" is a German word that means "sugar", "Salz" is also German and means "salt", "berg" (well, it's German too) means "mountain". So, their names mean "sugar mountain" and "salt mountain". Crazy!

Funny bug in Google Toolbar
On 19th of June 2010, a funny bug happend in the Google Toolbar translator:
"Eierbecher" means "egg cup" in English. The random characters seen on the screen indeed don't means anything similar to "Eierbecher" - at least not in German. May be in Icelandic (watch at the word that I looked up in Wikipedia some time before I took the screenshot)?
