Power Pole Wall Decals: Geekish or Freakish?
The geeky wall decals I've seen in the past have been cute, but the subjects (Space Invaders and Super Mario Bros.) seemed more appropriate for application in a kid's room.
Here, though, are some wall decals that feature a modern symbol of technology — the power pole — which come off looking starkly chic. From Ferm Living, these Power Pole Wall Decals (click through to the wall stickers section) would certainly make you feel like you're living in a technological wonderland — but would you want that right in your living room?
Beer USB Drive: Geekish or Freakish?
It's kind of hard to surprise me with a USB Drive these days; I feel like I've seen every novelty, and if I haven't yet, I think whatever the new drive (food USBs come to mind), it can be explained as the logical conclusion to a long line of goofy thumb drives. I didn't know quite what to say, though, when I saw the Beer USB Drive.
It's not actually beer floating in there (I don't think), and to get one, you have to order them in bulk, which means you probably don't need flash drives, but an intervention.
Star Wars Kites: Geekish or Freakish?
I don't know about you, but the insult "go fly a kite" never sounded all that insulting. Kiteflying is delightful! If anyone actually said that to me, I'd be all, "OK."
Weezer's Geekalicious Video: Geekish or Freakish?
With the new Weezer album cover getting some flack for being a little weird, I have to say that when it comes to their tunes, I'm still a fan. "Pork and Beans" is not only the standout track from their new record, it's also the one song that holds true to their signature sound. And since their album is hitting shelves on June 3, it's only fitting that these guys release a new (and ubergeeky) video.Skirt Mousepad Cover: Totally Geekish or Freakish?
Oh man, it doesn't get much dirtier than this. For all the geeks in your life that constantly have their minds in the gutter, you know, the ones who like things like this. .
My Beating Heart Pillow: Geekish or Freakish?
Aw, this makes me think of puppies needing to sleep with an alarm clock nearby so it reminds them of their mother's beating heart. Nearly as cute as that image is the My Beating Heart pillow, a plush, cuddly pillow with a heartbeat inside. They say it's not just a sound or a pre-recorded rhythm, apparently, the little computer inside syncs to your heartbeat when you turn it on and relaxes you.
Gameboy Shoes: Geekish or Freakish?
I love Gameboy. I love shoes. But I'm not so sure I like them together.
The Lapdome: Geekish or Freakish?
As attached as I am to my laptop, when I imagine myself lying in the sun poolside, I can't seem to envision myself glued to it. Nonetheless, the good folks at LapDome made sure that those of you who suffer with GSA (Gadget Separation Anxiety) are good to go, even when you're on vacay. Spotted at MacWorld, the LapDome acts as the ultimate bodyguard for your laptop:
This laptop computer carry case transforms into a sheltered, darkened work environment.
USB Christmas Cake: Geekish or Freakish?
Isn't it freakish enough to have a wedding cake covered with strawberries and a Christmas wreath? Add in four USB ports and you've got yourself a classy USB Christmas Cake. In total, this interesting masterpiece offers 1GB of memory and you guessed — it is only available in Japan.
Geekish or Freakish? Bluetooth Mini Phone
Now this is an interesting concept which I spotted on GeekAlerts. Wear a retro phone handset around your neck and use it as a your bluetooth handheld for your cell phone. Yes with the $70 bluetooth mini phone lanyard you can answer calls from your cell via the tiny one by pressing the call button.
