So, I get daily alerts of little tidbits of factoid in my SMS inbox. One of them I get is technology history. The latest one was rather amusing. Most of the time you get some accomplishment or another. However, this time, it wasn't quite an accomplishment:

"The first transatlantic cable fails after less than 1 month of service."

Whoops.
