Wikipedia Trails: From @ to Surimi

I saw a post about @ on the Class Twitter Stream. I was interested in where @ came from, and if it has an actual name.

Aragonese @ Symbol (Wikipedia)
@: It turns out it doesn't have an actual name and it's just called the "At Sign".

Narutomaki (Wikipedia)
Narutomaki: Nickname for the @ symbol. I knew what Narutomaki was, and I enjoy them so I wanted to know what they were made of.

Kamaboko (Wikipedia)
Kamaboko: Narutomaki is a type of Kamaboko, which is a pureed white fish formed into a loaf. Yum.

Surimi (Wikipedia)
Surimi: Kamaboko is a type of cured surimi, which is fish paste!
