Biz Games!!

The older name of this company, is an acronym formed from a Dutch phrase which literally means: "through united co-operation everyone regularly profits". Probably not just by chance, the new name formed by shortening the older name means "save (money)" in Afrikaans, Dutch, Danish, German and Norwegian.The older name in Dutch also means "the fir tree", hence it's logo.What company is being talked about here??

Biz Games!!

The logo with the famous “winged arrow” was first used in 1926.Although the logo of this company is viewed as one of the most original and stylistically clean manufacturing company trademarks in the world, the author is not yet known. The black and green logo, which has been used since 1994, gives it a greater degree of originality – black symbolises the hundred-year tradition, green signalises environmental production.


Usual interpretation of the logo’s symbolism

* Large circle (circular ring) – universality of production, perfection of products, the globe, the world
* Pinion (wing) – technical progress, span of production programme and sales of products in the world
* Arrow – progressive production methods, high productivity
* Circle (eye) – precision of production, technical brightness, range of vision
* Black colour – hundred-year tradition
* Green colour – environmental production, protection of the environment, recycling of materials used.


Give me the name of the company whose logo is being talked about and whose old logo is given below!!

By the way thanks for pointing it out.

X Games

X's creators hope that it will evoke neither a type of cherry nor a strip club on The Sopranos TV series but rather a sound — the ringing of a bell that signals the “aha” moment when one finds an answer.

The name is meant to conjure “the sound of found” as X helps people with complex tasks like shopping for a camera,travel plans etc. Identify X!!

Solve for X and Y!!

Once when Y was in San Francisco in a coffee shop he was thinking about naming his new venture X, and then the waitress came and he asked "do you know about X" And she said yes. He then asked what do you know abot x, and she said "Open Sesame". Then
he went onto the street and found 30 people and asked them, ‘Do you know X’? People from India, people from Germany, people from Tokyo and China… They all knew about X." X is not a thief. X is a kind, smart business person, and he helped the village. So…easy to spell, and globally known. X opens sesame for small- to medium-sized companies". Thats how Y came to name his hugely sucessful venture as X. Identify X & Y.






Shrey and Chakru got it right as usual ...... it is Jack Ma and his alibaba.com

Breaking News:Bangladesh controls US markets.

What does Bangladesh have to do with the U.S. stock market? Plenty, according to some pundits. Using their calculations, taking the change in X's production in Bangladesh and multiplying it by two gives you the approximate percentage by which the S&P 500 INDEX changes in the year ahead. Based on that, a 5% increase in X's production leads to a 10% hike in the S&P. The same statistics are believed to hold true on the downside.Simply,name the commodity"X".










Went Uncracked.The commodity is Butter.

The X factor

X was born in Rutland, Vermont USA on February 7, 1804, the son of William Rinold, a tailor, and Sarah Yates (1780-1826). William disappeared on the way to England in 1808 when X was only four years old. He served four years as apprentice to Captain Benjamin Lawrence, a prosperous Middlebury blacksmith, and entered the trade for himself in 1825.X's business was not doing very well, and he was having trouble with creditors. Facing bankruptcy, X sold the shop to his father-in-law and departed for Illinois. There X found out that cast-iron plows were not working very well in the tough prairie soil of Illinois. He came to the conclusion that a plow made out of highly polished steel and a correctly shaped moldboard (the self-scouring steel plow) would be better able to handle the soil conditions of the prairie, especially its sticky clay. This was the begining of a very sucessful venture. Identify X!!
