			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Who said geeks don’t celebrate Halloween?  I am willing to bet a month’s salary (not much, I have to admit) that there will be countless Spocks, Darth Vaders, and other similar characters at parties this weekend.  But have you ever thought of carving that pumpkin based on the current social media trends?  I honestly haven’t, but the guys at <a href="http://mashable.com/2009/10/28/halloween-pumpkin-carvings/">Mashable did an excellent job featuring 12 of the coolest social media pumpkin carvings for Halloween</a>.</p>
<p>You should check the full article out, but here’s a tiny glimpse of what’s in store for you.  Needless to say, they’re the ones that made my blood flow more quickly.<br />
<span id="more-14338"></span><br />
<strong>Twitter’s Fail Whale </strong>– who does not recognize this creature?  Twitter has received a lot of flak for its intermittent service, although we have to admit is has become much better.  Still, the fail whale has earned its place in history.<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-14339" src="http://www.forevergeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/failwhale-pumpkin1-300x225-223x167.jpg" alt="failwhale-pumpkin1-300x225" width="223" height="167" /><br />
<strong>Firefox and IE</strong> – I use Chrome now since Firefox started to crash on me all the time about a month ago, and I haven’t used IE since forever, but these pumpkins still look awesome, don’t they?<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-14340" src="http://www.forevergeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/firefox-ie-pumpkin-223x126.jpg" alt="firefox-ie-pumpkin" width="223" height="126" /><br />
<strong>Reddit</strong> – I love how they used a reddish hue for the lighting inside the pumpkin.  This alien is cuter than ET, in my opinion.<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-14341" src="http://www.forevergeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/reddit-pumpkin-223x110.jpg" alt="reddit-pumpkin" width="223" height="110" /><br />
<strong>Apple</strong> – of course.  I could have thought of this myself if I didn’t see Mashable’s write up first (yeah right).  A geek pumpkin fest will not be complete without an Apple carving, don’t you think?  Maybe you can use Steve Job’s face for a more unique carving?<br />
