Lego-Inspired Ring: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?
I'll admit, I was essentially born to love Legos, so my affinity for this Lego-Inspired ring from Toy Me Milano is expected.
The piece is made of silver with a rhodium plating and provides what I think is a chic homage to the Lego blocks, clocks and gadgetry we see so often in the tech world. Do you like it?
Space Invader Rings: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?
It seems like 2007 was the year of Space Invader sundries. From pillows, doormats and sweaters to these Space Invader Rings from the Toy Me Milano collection.
I happen to love the rings because they elevate video game love to a whole new level — they are unique, artistic and, if you ask me, completely geek chic.

Geek Tip: Make and Share Lists Online
Now is the perfect time for me to introduce you to Listography — it's going to become so helpful when you're shopping for holiday gifts.

Turn In Your Used Baby Items For Some Cash
Call it cash for baby clunkers. Like the federal government's program designed to remove gas guzzlers from the road, Toys "R" Us and Babies "R" Us are launching a program to draw attention to the number of baby products that should not be handed down or resold to a new generation of lil ones.
Beginning Friday, the stores will launch the Great Trade-In, allowing parents to bring in used cribs, car seats, bassinets, strollers, travel systems, play yards and high chairs in exchange for a 20% savings on the purchase of any new baby item by certain manufacturers – including Britax, Chicco, Evenflo and Graco.
The Gifted Child: Gifts Fit For Young Girls
It's always so much fun buying gifts for newborn babies, but just like babies, the gift shopping just keeps getting better as they get older. Perhaps it's the nostalgia that lives in some of the toys or the cleverness of others that leaves me wondering, "Why didn't I think of that?!" Check out our list of gifts that are sure to be a hit with young girls this holiday season.
Where Do You Stand? Spending Money on Sex Toys
Last year most of you agreed that spending $12,000 on a vibrator was out of the question, but what about $1,440? Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics recently worked with an adult-only specialist firm to design a vibrator made of solid steel with a satin finish, adorned with an "eternity band" of 28 diamonds for the high price of $1,440. For a famous musician that might not seem like a lot, but for the average Joe, $1,440 could pay for more than a month's rent!
Blinded by the Light: Have You Been Fooled by a Commercial?
I was stoked after seeing a commercial for the Powermat, a wireless gadget charger that claims to charge any of your electronic toys without wires, cords, or trouble just by placing your device on the Powermat — finally a solution to my cord-management problems! A few days later I saw the Powermat at my local Best Buy and considered forking over the $100 listed on the price tag for convenience alone. But then reality (and an explanation from the sales rep) set in: $100 is not the bottom line on this super charger.
Cirque du Freak: An Unnecessary Addition to Vampire Entertainment
With Halloween just around the corner, October is the perfect time for movie studios to unleash their creepiest films, since we're all in the mood for a good scare. Combine with that the insatiable desire for vampire entertainment, and you've got Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant; a tween fantasy movie that plays out like R.L. Stein's Goosebumps novels on the big screen — but not nearly as scary.

Come PetMarking With Me: Pet Toy Box
I've totes got toys on the brain today! Because many of our pets have more than their fair share, it's hard to keep them from spreading all over the house. I currently keep North's toys in a large plant pot from Ikea – it's meant to be a temporary fix, so now I'm on a mission to find a new container for my pooch's fun things!
