Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Nintendo "DM" Cell Charm
If you're a hardcore Nintendo follower you have probably already feasted your eyes on the DS Cell Phone Charm, but for the rest of you here's a geeky - albeit girly - treat. When our resident tech spy wasn't snapping photos of LG ads in Korea and Japan, he managed to pick me up this adorable "Nintendo DM Lite" cell phone charm. Instead of the double LED screens it sports a "Dobble Mirror" so you can check and make sure your lip gloss is popping before making a call.
Duck Hunt Sweater Spotted Out Of Wilderness
One of my college roommates spent many an hour playing Nintendo Duck Hunt and avoiding her school work (I was worried at first but she had this unnatural ability to ace classes despite her addiction and ended up becoming a brilliant Archaeologist). Needless to say, I was taken on a nostalgic trip down memory lane when I learned Craftster member Quacker Jacks has created a lovely and amazing piece of geek art inspired by the game. Apparently, Quacker Jacks decided to combine her childhood obsession with Duck Hunt with her new obsession of knitting and after about a month of on and off knitting, this gem was born.
Shia LaBeouf talks about fame, privacy and the car accident
Shia LaBeouf’s conspiracy thriller “Eagle Eye” debuted at the top of the weekend box office with $29.2 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. After escaping the bad guys in Indiana Jones 4 this summer, he and co-star Michelle Monaghan are fleeing from something more mysterious in Eagle Eye, the new thriller from Steven Spielberg. The Paramount-DreamWorks release was the second No.Website Of The Day: Craft Blog
If you're into geeky crafts and Do It Yourself projects you're probably already a fan of Craft Magazine, which is known for offering plans for making all kinds of geeky things like a cool chopper out of an old bicycle and a pedal powered iPod charger. The problem is, the magazine only comes quarterly, so I can get a little antsy for geeky, crafty things.
Enter Craft Blog, a constantly updated guide to the "most up to date happenings in the crafts world."
Semi-Cool Batman Dark Knight Site
Comcast has launched a new tie-in website for The Dark Knight where you'll find a new IMAX featurette, a "Making of the Clown Masks" video, downloads, photos and more.
Its kind of cool in a geeky kind of way, and I'm a geek, so... I watched half of the video before I got bored.
Geeky Bridal Shower Games: DDR and Guitar Hero
It seems unanimous: geeky women approve of video game infused gatherings and parties complete with a little Wii, PlayStation and Xbox action, so why not add a little video gaming to your bridal shower? At first I was a tad appalled by the idea - being an old fashioned girl who thinks bridal showers should be filled with overflowing tea pots, scrumptious tea cake and dorky question games (you know forcing the bride to recall the outfit the groom was wearing the day they met is so much fun), but with a little bit of convincing - namely an enthusiastic response to my geek bachelorette party ideas - I am now a staunch supporter of setting up a video game station or competition at your bridal shower.
My reasoning is simple: If you and your girlfriends have fun playing video games at a regular party, you'll have twice as much fun doing it at a bridal party, which are often attended by all those aunts, cousins and co-workers you don't know that well.

Website of the Day: Ultra Kawaii!
Normally I get my Ultra Kawaii fix while reclining on my couch via TiVoCast, but I also have been known to obsess over their website. It's uncomplicated and completely adorable — puppies, kitties, and other cute animals being cute. My love for Ultra Kawaii rivals my debilitating addictions to the Lolcats and CuteOverload.
Website of the Day: WooMe
The newly launched WooMe website offers a modern — albeit geeky — take on the speed-dating craze. The site allows users to meet people across the globe via the Internet in free speed-dating video sessions.
You can invite friends or strangers to play with you and "immediately decide if you are woo'd by someone."
Download Of The Day: Blackberry Video Converter
The Blackberry Video Converter is a free utility that encodes video so you can play it on your RIM BlackBerry, meaning you can take your favorite Sugar videos with you everywhere you go.
I love it because I can put FitSugar's workout videos on my phone and take it to the gym with me.
The interface is simple, clean and created with usability in mind so it's actually an easy way to feel really geeky.
