Arduino and Bluetooth USB dongle


Is it possible to use a mini USB Bluetooth dongle like in the following picture in order to improve my Arduino Uno, so it can comunicate with other Bluetooth devices?

It is, in theory, possible, to make your Arduino talk USB to the Bluetooth dongle. Usually, however, the better solution is to buy a serial-to-bluetooth module, and connect that to the serial pins on your Arduino, or to pins on Arduino compatible usable by the SoftwareSerial library.
