  • Dork, Geek, Nerd? Which Best Describes Me?

         

    Your Score: Modern, Cool Nerd

         

    60 % Nerd, 56% Geek, 34% Dork

          
         

          For The Record:

    A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
    A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
    A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
    You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd.

    Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!

    Congratulations!

  • Guess the Reference!

    First person to guess this reference gets a special prize. Where is this from:

    "Why are you the way that you are? Honestly - every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not that way… I hate… so much about the things that you choose to be…"

    Well?

  • GOOG 411

    It's been some time since I've posted, eh? Well this is more of a news story:

    Google has just launched "Google Voice Local Search." It's the equivalent of using 411, but it's FREE, it's fast, and pulls up multiple listings. You can also have the search result sent to your cell phone via a text message.

    Use it by dialing 1-800-GOOG-411 (1-800-466-4411)

  • Hi everyone.  Today I have to admit that I am a bit of a geek.  Yesterday at midnight eastern standard time, I purchased and downloaded the new version of windows (windows vista).  Now that I have installed it on my computer I can tell you that it is a very nice operating system and much better than Windows XP.  Right now I’m typing this message through voice dictation and it has made very few mistakes.  The only mistake it has made is confusing geek for peak.  I will type more later but perhaps this can be an easy way for me to write journal entries in the future.  Bye for now!
