I don't know if I like the idea of being more inconspicuous with a geeky tie, or if I think you should just go all out and say, this is my RCA Cable Tie ($30), and that's who I am!
The design makes me think these are wearable though — bright, bold primary colors with the simple silhouette of the RCA cables on them.
I mean, if you're going to resort to getting your dad another tie for the holidays, you might as well do something different like this, right?

When I hear Salvatore Ferragamo, I generally think "shoes I can't afford," not "geeky ties," but it seems that the renowned Italian design house is now in the business of making my boyfriend happy with this legit tie.
Run-of-the-mill from afar, but when you look close, the subversion begins! Tiny CDs and headphones are printed on fine blue silk.

Not every guy (or girl) is chic enough to pull off the geek tie, but for those who are, there seem to be endless fashion choices. From video game themes, Harry Potter prints, math symbols, retro computer graphics, url jokes, and pixelated images, there really is no end to the geekery.
It's a style that doesn't exactly jive with the J.Crew masses, but if you work in the tech industry, or want a funny novelty tie on deck for parties, you can always find an entertaining geek tie to top off your outfit online.

One of Tracy Ullman's best impersonations (in my mind) on her new show State of the Union has to be blogger Arianna Huffington. It's pure genius and reminds me of all the times I've ad libbed tech terms into everyday conversation and gotten confused "huh?" responses from my audience.

I check in daily with Dvice, not only because of its gadget coverage, but also because of its sweet sci-fi influence. So just in case you aren't familiar (and if not, why?), let me introduce you to one of Dvice's endearingly geeky contributors — and one of this year's Geeks We Love — Kevin Hall. Recent Brooklyn transplant, this geek hottie has traveled the world, seen (almost) everything, and can still say that robots are his favorite thing .

I shared my favorite geek ties with you readers earlier this week and many of you noted that you're, well, not exactly tie wearers. If you're decidedly female and don't rock the 2002 Avril Lavigne look, or if you're a fella who hates that office-geek look, consider the many other geek chic accessories out there.
My all time favorite geek accessories fall into the geek jewelry category.

Family ties bound last night's episode of Gossip Girl, which was hot hot hot — gorgeous, candy-colored cell phones at every turn! It was a geek's dream (and a fashionista's; check out CelebStyle for last night's looks) and I ate up every minute of it. If you did too, then take my tech quiz and see how well you paid attention.

Holiday gifts for that geeky guy in your life can be stressful, considering he's usually in-the-know about all the cool gadgets and techie treats on the market. My theory is to make sure you get him something that you both can enjoy, that way you're never agitated that he wants to spend a million hours shining his new toys or programing TiVo.
Tivo Series3
If your fella is geeky enough that he took you on more than one date to the electronics store before purchasing his beloved HDTV, he needs a TiVo upgrade to the TiVo Series 3 HD Digital Media Recorder.

I'll admit it, I have a geek crush on Iron Man. And, I adore his geeky-but-hot alter ego Tony Stark, who has a lab straight out of every geeks' daydreams with computers, gadgets, and hot cars (most likely equipped with some high-tech GPS) galore. Even the phone he carries is totally geek chic!

There is some geek apparel that I adore — cute tee shirts, snowboarding jackets with built-in iPod chargers and fans, geeky ties and of course, an overall celebration of all things geek. There are other items I just don't understand, namely geeky underwear. It's a genre that's exploded recently, presumably inspired by video games, HTTP errors and the fact that the combination of geek and undergarments seems to titillate the type of person that buys their panties online.
