Geek Tip: Google's Klingon Search

GeekSugar — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 04:04:37 -0700

Just because I know how impressed you were to find out that Rosario Dawson Speaks Klingon, I thought I'd take this opportunity to fill all you Trekkies in on a Google secret. Did you know that there is such a thing called Google Klingon? Yes it's true, you can click on this link and find Google's search page and results in Klingon. I think it's very cool of Google to create such a cool search method, which caters to devout Star Trek fans. I plan on sticking with my regular search method, but I'm more than willing to brush up on my basic Klingon terms, face it, it's fun.

GeekSugar — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 09:07:57 -0700

We all know she's pretty and some of us even know she's a Treo junkie, but did you know that Rosario Dawson loves Star Trek and speaks Klingon? Rosario recently shared her hidden interests and talents with the geeky Conan O'Brien - leaving millions of men and women worldwide to conclude she's the hottest geek ever.

In case you are the .01 percent of the population that's confused, Klingon is the language of those bumpy headed aliens of Star Trek. There's even a Klingon Language Institute that offers support for your "exploration of the galaxy's fastest growing language." I know most people resist admitting they are Trekkies and these days it's a lot cooler to be a Battlestar Galactica fan, but there are still some key Klingon phrases you should know, read more

It's my belief that a little Klingon never hurt anyone. Whether you're trying to attract that super geeky guy, bond with your sibling or trying to tell that geeky guy to "naDevvo' yIghoS" in his own language, here are some phrases you need to know.

Guess Rosario's Phone Wrap-Up

GeekSugar — Fri, 09 Mar 2007 03:57:21 -0800

Last week I asked all of you to guess what phone Elizabeth, Rosario and Britney had. Groby figured out that Britney's phone was a Samsung D807. Now thanks to the tech savvy TeamSugar user Moni B we have learned what Rosario's phone is! Moni B guessed it to be a 650 or 700w/wx Palm Treo. After taking a look at some closer shots, we're going to assume it's the Palm Treo 700. This smartphone is great for wireless email, net surfing, and of course text messaging. Looks like Rosario just received a juicy SMS message!

Last but not least, what is Elizabeth carrying? Be sure to keep those suggestions rolling in!

I wouldn't call myself a Trekkie, but the new Mr. Spock is hot and it's hard not to get sucked in to the current Star Trek mania surrounding the film. Taking top spot at the box office, the Star Trek movie surpassed my expectations. Were you one of the millions that saw it?

OMG! Can You Text As Fast As Paris Hilton?

GeekSugar — Tue, 10 Apr 2007 15:10:39 -0700

Have you ever wondered if you can text as fast as texting junkies like Paris Hilton or Rosario Dawson?

While I have no clue how fast either of the ladies text, LG is hosting the National Texting Championship NY edition and you too can get in on the finger fun. Players will compete in pools and be asked to type phrases on their enV / V handsets (yes, you have to be an LG user) exactly as they appear with no typos or abbreviations.

The first player in each pool who sends an error-free message to the right contact will advance to the next round. As game play continues, the phrases to be texted will increase in difficulty.

The west coast contest has already happened, but after the East Coast Texting Champion has been crowned, the bi-coastal winners will wage war for an additional $15,000. The LG National Texting Champion will win a total of $25,000. Like OMG - WISP. Oh wait, no abbreviations allowed. Like oh my god - winning is so pleasurable!
