Apple dominates streetsight Iceland
// September 12th, 2007 // photolog
I’ve been in Iceland for 3 days and one of the things I noticed was the influence of Apple in the street view. Here’s a picture that shows an example:
To bad there were no other Mac freaks on the trip!
update: Greatsloth explains this symbol in the comments.
I still don’t know what this sign means in Iceland… but you can see it everywhere!
The clover symbol is a Saint Hannes cross which is sometimes found in Scandinavia as an ornament on Viking artifacts. It is used in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden as a symbol of “sites of historical or touristic interest”, for example church ruins, museums, interesting natural formations, and so forth. It is used as a road sign at such places.
So now you know the facts.

Like Greatsloth said, Icelanddiddnt get the symbol from Apple, Apple got the symbol from iceland
