Dear Qt community,

We here at Qt Software hate to explain a joke but obviously our reference here was a touch too obscure. We have historically suffered from people being unsure how to pronounce Qt. Some say Q-T, while others say “cute”. The correct way to say it is “cute”, due to the way the letters Q + T are pronounced in Norwegian.

Qt Overload was designed to help reinforce how to pronounce Qt. We tried to spoof a website called Cute Overload, a popular site for cute things. We launched this on April 1 because we hoped that people would realize this isn’t our real community site, it’s just for fun.

Sincerely,

The Trolls

PS: We found this really darn funny - at least we amused ourselves

In a previous post we showed a mockup of how we were thinking of making qtsoftware.com cuter. Well in talking this through with our team we decided that the whole darn interweb needed to get a lot more cute and pretty.

This browser is build using Webkit and Qt.

The best part? The source code is available on our Qt Labs site.

PS: Thanks Ariya for making the web a prettier place!
