5 Resources For The Geek In You

When did being a geek become so cool? I remember a decade ago, it was considered offensive to call someone a geek, now it is almost a compliment. Being a geek has transitioned from embarrassing, to mainstream, to cool. Is it because people these days are so technologically smart? Is it because the sexy guys in Hollywood always play the role of the humble geek in movies?

I think we all have a certain degree of geek in us; it simply becomes a question of how much. There is definitely a geek hierarchy or geek-o-meter. I look at my 8 year old son, who not only has his own Mac and PC, but is also on Twitter, and I know that he is poised to become the next generation of super geek.

For all you geeks that were once taunted or belittled, if you were made to feel like a social outcast at any time in your life, that is over! This is your time! Guess what? Somehow you (we) are now part of the cool crowd!

I’ve put together a short but powerful list of 5 geek resources for you to embrace your inner-geekiness:
