How Geeky Are You?

Dec 28 2006 - 11:23am

While some geeks have universal appeal - think Bill Gates and Seth Cohen - others are, well just clueless.

I like like to think of myself as a healthy medium. I'm a girl first and a geek second. Of course, that doesn't mean I don't quote Star Wars and Firefly and that I haven't already planned out exactly what I want to scope out at the upcoming Macworld Conference. It just means I also know what I'll be wearing. How geeky are you?
