20 Geekiest Cars in Movies

We certainly love our movies here at Forever Geek. In many movies cars play a very big role and we are fans of cars as well. Actually there are three things we particularly like in/about movies: Great movie title sequences, special effects and robots and last but not least cars.So we went ahead and compiled a list of the geekiest cars in movies. While selecting these cars it was imperative for us that we chose only modified cars, so no Eleanor (Shelby GT500).

The Incredible Hulk The film I’ve already covered the trailer of is set to be a big one – in every sense.  The Hulk is back, with this film ignoring the Ang Lee movie of a couple of years ago.  This time round – and rather wisely I may add – they have Read more »

In the 80s we have some great action figures…and sometimes they had great cartoons to go along with them. Transformers, He-Man, G.I.

Beginner's guide to podcasts and podcasting (plus: how to create a basic podcast of your own)

Much has been said about podcasts and podcasting since they were popularized especially in the tech/geek scene more than a year back. Just like blogs, podcasts are yet another Web 2.0 offshoot, bringing content-generation away from centralized sources (i.e., radio, television) into the consumers themselves–we are now prosumers of information and content. We produce, and we consume. Let’s say you came late in the game. Perhaps it’s only now that you’ve purchased your own portable music player, got a broadband connection, or simply got wind of this wonderful new medium that lets you listen to just about anything under the sun, and even create your own audio programmes about anything Read more »

TechEBlog has brought together a great collection of some of, what they consider, strange Lego creations, that I find simply astonishing.
