<p>The little charming talk bubbles all over the Internet communications have a similar warm effect.

Ah no more. <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/09/01/developers-be-warned-apple-has-apparently-trademarked-those-shiny-chat-bubbles/">According to TechCrunch</a>, when a developer wondered why his App had not been approved he was told &#8220;the bubbles in its chat rooms are too shiny, and Apple has trademarked that bubbly design.&#8221; Wow. Do comic strip and book folks know that Apple is that clever? The wondrous shiny dialogue bubble means Apple! Do the green bubbles qualify too? Yet again I am left wondering what&#8217;s a cubit and contemplating a drink with tiny, shiny bubbles. </p>
<p>So I leave you with Don Ho and Tiny Bubbles. </p>
