Linux Gets Happy Feet (opens in new tab)

May 9, 1996 Linus Torvalds describes in an e-mail to a mailing list his conception of what he believes should be the logo for the Linux operating system. This is what soon becomes Tux the penguin, the “brand character” for Linux. Perhaps had he known the movie Happy Feet would be released a little over 10 years… Linux Gets Happy Feet is original content of This Day in Tech History.
