First Registered Trademark
The Bass Brewery was founded in 1777 by William Bass in Burton Trent, England. The main brand was Bass Pale Ale, once the best selling beer in the UK. Bass became one of the top breweries in the UK, its pale ale was exported throughout the British Empire, the company's distinctive red triangle became the UK's first registered trademark.It is also considered as the first image to be registered as trademark in 1875.
Bass took control of a number of other large breweries in the early 20th century, and in the 1960s merged with Charrington United Breweries to become the largest UK brewing company, Bass Charrington.

Twitter's Birth
How Twitter was Born
 |
| Jack Dorsey,co-founder |
Jack
Dorsey, the co-founder of twitter, have been through tough times and have
struggled for years before he managed to make his new website popular.
Dorsey was passionate
about computers and the way people communicated with each other since he was
very young. Because he was obsessed with programming he got a job at one of the
largest dispatching companies at that time.
Dorsey learned the
importance of short messages in dispatching services while working at that
company. Dorsey then left his job and decided to start a company that
dispatches taxes through a website. The company failed and Dorsey had to find
another job.
Dorsey found a new job
at a pod-casting company but he didn't like the job. During that time he became
more obsessed with short messages and he used to write his status updates on
his blog.
Dorsey then thought
about creating a website that allows people to post their own status update and
thus resulted in the creation of “TWITTER”.
