The Famous Company’s First Logo.

Filed under: Knowledge — Kumail @ 7:00 PM

I found an interesting article, so I would like to share about it.

It’s about the first logo-mark of famous companies which most probably every one knows.

Hmm, I don’t see any difference though…

Microsoft®. I liked the middle one personally.

I just knew that the company name of IBM was different in the past…

Firefox.

The first one looks nice…

Canon

Adobe.

LG.

Zimbabwe Dollars

Filed under: Knowledge — Kumail @ 11:00 PM

Zimbabwe is a country in south of Africa.

In Zimbabwe, they use Zimbabwe Dollars(Z$), and it was quite interesting so I would like to shere about it today.

First, take a look at this picture.

At first, I thought that he won the lottery or something…

You might not believe it but, actually he is just going for shopping. As you can see, he is carrying a bunch of cash.

In 2008, they printed the 200,000Z$ money.

and then, it gradually increased more and more `0`s. With the money in the picture above, you can only buy about three eggs.

And in January, 2009, they printed `100,000,000,000,000`Z$. At that time, they actually used it normally.

but right now, there is only 1-500 Z$ notes there.
