Geek Goes Chic: Etchstar Carves Place in My Cell and Heart
In case you haven't heard, our recent party in LA was decidedly geek chic. PopSugar put on the event with our friends at TechCrunch, but it included an array of other sponsors who set up fun stations around the venue.
One of the stations was Etchstar, who I have written about in the past.
Make a One-of-a-Kind Gadget with Etchstar
I was never really keen on the idea of engraving my gadgets, but after checking out all the neat samples by Etchstar, I'm starting to reconsider. What's great about Etchstar is the fact that you can buy products directly from them or send your own to be customized (coming soon). Select a design from the gallery or upload your own — the options are endless.
Laser Engraved iPod Shuffle Adds Creative Touch

I honestly thought that the days of lasering your gadgets were over — primarily because I haven't seen many tattoo lasered laptops recently and because there are so many unique cases. Plus, I find it hard to justify permanently scratching-up your beloved gadgets.
But when I saw this shuffle on Chip Chick, I actually thought it was kinda cute!

Macworld 2008: Would You Tattoo Your Tech?
We've all seen engravings on iPods and laptops, but I don't think I've seen them look quite so tattoo-like as I did at ETCHamac's booth at Macworld. ETCHamac does custom engraving exclusively for Apple products (which you can now purchase new from their website and choose a design), and is newly engraving iPhones as well. I would definitely have a hard time choosing a design to tattoo on my body, but maybe it could be a low-commitment substitute to put it on my laptop instead?!

geeksugar Goes Inside SF's Resident Evil 5 Launch Party
How appropriate that Resident Evil 5 would launch today, Friday the 13th, since it's one of the creepiest games ever. And if you needed proof that the series is a true crowd-pleaser, try this fact on for size: Resident Evil 4 sold 5.2 million copies since its 2005 release, and the entire series has sold more than 36 million copies since it first appeared on the scene in 1996. And speaking of crowds, the one that gathered outside the launch tent in San Francisco's Union Square last night was packed with gamers who were not only waiting to get an early peek at the game, but also anxiously watching the clock until midnight arrived so they could head home with a copy of their own.
Gadget Accessories Based on TV Shows: Love It or Leave It?
Color me happy! Not only have I spied a Beverly Hills, 90210-engraved iPod, I also found this Sex and the City iPod speaker lurking about.
I saw the Sex and the City movie twice and own the first couple seasons of 90210, but I don't know if I have the die-hard commitment to go this far.
iPod Classic Verses Zune: Which Would You Choose?
I've always been an iPod sort of girl, but when a friend of mine whipped out his Zune at a recent barbecue, I felt a twinge of jealousy. A 3.2-inch screen? Wireless syncing?
