Geek Jewelry Christmas Present Ideas [Hint!]
![Geek Jewelry Christmas Present Ideas [Hint!]](http://www.forevergeek.com/wp-content/media/2010/12/pi1-160x160.jpg)
A comment notification in my Inbox led me to an old post that I might have otherwise forgotten: the Caffeine Molecule Necklace. Thanks to Kaya, I discovered an online jewelry shop that kicks butt; and trust me, it is not your ordinary jewelry store! Christmas is only a couple of weeks away, and here are some items that just might find their way to your shopping list – or maybe your wish list! Read more »
Geeky Christmas Tree Ornaments
Where I come from, the Christmas season starts when we hit the “-ber months”. That means at the stroke of midnight, on September 1, you will hear radio stations playing Christmas songs. Unbelievable, maybe, but true! I don’t know if you decorate for Christmas – I don’t. If I were to put up my own tree, though, I already know what ornaments I would be using. For those of you who are yet to put up their trees or are in the process of doing so, here is a bunch of tree ornaments that you just might want to grab. Read more »
When Pac-Man Goes Wrong
Wait – is that even possible? How can you go wrong with Pac-Man? We’ve seen some of the coolest pieces of merchandise following the Pac-Man theme, but who would have thought that there is some really bad (in the original sense) stuff out there? I came across a collection of the 10 Absolutely Horrible Pieces of Pac-Man Merchandise earlier, and boy, do I have to agree with the writer! Read more »
Accessorizing, TRON Style
Disney believes that the look of Tron: Legacy is the future of fashion accessorizing, and is ready to make the future today. Hence, this collection of fine jewelry and couture inspired by the movie. Disney Consumer Products has partnered with high-end designers like Rousseau, Hayden-Harnett, Rotenier and TomTom to create what they call “luxury accessories for women,” many of which are based on the look of Tron‘s female lead, Quorra (played by actress Olivia Wilde). And when I say “high-end,” I mean it: prices start at $90 and go up to $2,600. Disney is also launching a store in November in Los Angeles that they’re calling the “Tron Pop-Up Shop.” All Read more »
TRON LEGACY Suits: Am Lovin’ All the Leather
The original Tron movie has been sitting idle in my hard drive for the longest time, and I really do have to watch it before the new movie comes out. While I wait for the chance to sit down and focus on that movie, I shall content myself with drooling at these new suits from Universal Designs. With a tagline “Welcome to a World Where Leather Rules,” you really can’t go wrong, can you? They are now selling leather motorcycle suits – for both men and women – that I think are pretty cool. The next time you have a costume party (Halloween’s coming up!), you just might win costume Read more »
If Pink Is Your Color…
…why not grab some pink gadgets this month and join a worthy cause? I know I keep saying that I do not like the color pink, but for some reason, I keep running across this color. If you do not know yet, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and it is usually commemorated with the color pink. Even gadget manufacturers go out of their way to further the cause (of course, we know that money is still somehow involved in all this), and come up with special edition pink versions of their products. I wouldn’t recommend going as far as buying a pink laptop if you are not really into Read more »
The Ever Increasing Watch
There are some people who are simply into watches. While one can only really wear one watch at a time, these people will not hesitate to pick up a new watch that catches their fancy. Most of the time, though, watches such as those made by Breitling, Rolex, and the other big boys are the ones that are much sought after. For those who have a geekier side, however, I am pretty sure that the “Ever Increasing Watch” will prove to be more appealing than any of the watches produced by the manufacturers mentioned above. One look at the Ever Increasing Watch will make your curiosity rise like the water Read more »
Dammit. I'm Gonna Have to Get an iPad
Normally I’d write this over at Apple Gazette – your source for excellent Apple news, reviews and commentary – but let’s face it; there’s nothing geekier right now than the iPad. I originally thought that it wasn’t worth my time. There was no reason for me to get an iPad when my laptop and iPhone do everything I need them to do. I just didn’t see a fit for it in my life, frankly, and I didn’t want to spend the money. I did this same thing with the iPhone. God, did I want the iPhone badly, but it just didn’t fit all of the qualifications that I wanted in Read more »
Gagdets For The Gangsta Geek
I have never met a gangsta who calls himself a geek, or a geek who dubs himself a gangsta. I am pretty sure that if I look hard enough, I’ll find someone who fits this description. There is no denying it – gangsta culture has become quite prominent in the recent years, and people who are part of this sub-culture are proud to be identified with it. But, what do we get when we combine geek and gangsta together? Kristin Verby seems to have gotten things just right. Armed with a digital camera and some 3D software, she came up with some interesting concepts. I wouldn’t mind having one or Read more »
