For my geeks rocking on with RSS Readers, can I just say I'm proud? An impressive amount of you use them (seriously, I feel like I'm always evangelizing about it to my friends and family and two percent listen), so just for you, I've compiled my top ten favorite RSS reader tips to make your blog-rollin' just that much more enjoyable and efficient!

Mix tape nostalgia is hotter than ever right now; if it's not a new product in the shape of a mix tape, like this USB stick, then there's a website popping up for waxing sentimental over the things and their song selections.
Joining the party right on time is this felt mix tape pouch from Etsy. It's soft and cute, and may remind you of a someone compiling one too many Elliott Smith songs for you. What say you?
Everyone knows I'm a big fan of bubble wrap (little Katie Sugar loves it too!). Whenever a package comes in, I pray for the bubbles instead of those lame peanuts that I can't do anything with (besides toss them up in the air and create my own personal snow globe).
The Bubble Wrap Key Chain has quelled my need for popping somewhat, but I need more! More bubble wrap, I say!
Enter the Bubble Wrap Calendar, which allows me to pop a new bubble every day of the week! The calendar even comes complete with holidays and important dates printed right on the bubbles. And bonus, it's handmade in Brooklyn! My only concern? What will keep me from popping all the bubbles today?!
You might know how I feel about message tees, but in this case, though I wouldn't wear it, I am wearing a big ol' grin. Who among us geeks and geek lovers hasn't gone weak at the knees at the sound of your crush talking tech specs, operating systems, and onboard RAM?
It's hot, put simply. Its hotness and its very aphrodisiac status validates the existence of this Talk Nerdy To Me t-shirt.
Sadly, Delia's says the shirt is all sold out, but let it be an inspiration to you: Go home to the hot geek in your life and whisper this in his ear. Single? Hightail it to the Apple store. You guys will be wearing these in no time.
I love a good website that helps me do something geeky even better, but sometimes I've got to feature a new website that's more on the sweet and artful side. The Ones We Love was begun as a project by young photographer, Lindley Warren, who asked people to submit six photographs of the most important person in their life.
The result is a compilation of startlingly intimate shots by assorted photographers that are breathtaking and lovely, regardless of skill or technique (though it's paramount on this site). To get to all the shots, simply navigate to "photographers," click on any of the names, and first read the introduction the artist gives the subject. Sigh. . . where's my camera?

It's not just the Brits who find Google Maps a little freaky deaky; there are scenarios in which the benevolent Google could be used for evil. Don't buy it? Then watch this hilariously satirical video about what happens when boy meets girl, boy gets jealous, and boy makes a My Map with Google Maps.
